Can’t stop crying...amazing writer- God through Lynn Austin

I learned so much about love, forgiveness, mercy, justice, God’s Heart for us no matter what, this story in the Bible which of course we don’t know exactly how it went, but Wow! However it went it had the same lessons learned. Grace, the Father’s love for us. I think these are my favorite books now. Thank you. Wish they didn’t end.

Another great book!

I loved this series. The only complaint I have is in editing. Often, the next chapter is introduced so quickly, it almost sounds like the continuation of the last sentence. I enjoyed the book regardless of this. Wonderful story!

Couldn’t Stop Listening!

Aside from the readers brilliant performance and outstanding characterizations, the works Austin has woven together for this series is compelling, educational,…..anointed! I can only pray Austin digs up more Kings from David’s bloodline! The biblical authenticity lends great credibility (I even googled some of the facts that panned out)! I am refreshed and wanting more!!

A very beautiful story!

What a beautiful story of God's love and forgiveness and what it means to forgive our enemies. Only with almighty God's help!

Great story and excellent narration!

This book took me on a voyage back in time and thought me many lessons!

I enjoyed the first book (Faith of my fathers), but this sequal is even better. You definitely do not have to be a strong believer to appreciate the story and after reading it, hopefully be able to forgive more easily!

Lynn Austin is now my new favorite author!

Among the Gods.

Historical fiction of the evil reign of Manassa; yet memorable interweaving of Levitical exile. God's mercy shines.
