In The Prophet, the fourth book in the Sons of Encouragement series, beloved author Francine Rivers illuminates the life of Amos. Francine examines the life of Amos and his relationship to Israel during its prosperous years. Amos' message and his relationship with God made him unpopular. But his challenge to those who were enjoying the blessings of prosperity was crucial then and is strikingly timely today as well.

A successful LA artist, Roman Velasco appears to have everything he could possibly want - money, women, fame. Only Grace Moore, his reluctant, newly hired personal assistant, knows how little he truly has. The demons of Roman's past seem to echo through the halls of his empty mansion and out across his breathtaking Topanga Canyon view. But Grace doesn't know how her boss secretly wrestles with those demons: by tagging buildings as the Bird, a notorious but unidentified graffiti artist - an alter ego that could destroy his career and land him in prison.

Seeking peace and safety after a hard childhood, Leah marries Judah, a strong and gentle man, and for the first time in her life Leah believes she can rest easily. But the land is ruled by Antiochus IV, descended from one of Alexander the Great's generals, and when he issues a decree that all Jews are to conform to Syrian laws upon pain of death, devout Jews risk everything to follow the law of Moses. Judah's father resists the decree, igniting a war that will cost him his life. But before dying, he commands his son to pick up his sword and continue the fight - or bear responsibility for the obliteration of the land of Judah. Leah, who wants nothing but peace, struggles with her husband's decision - what kind of God would destroy the peace she has sought for so long?

Publisher's Summary
His courage covered his brother's fear. His sacrifices atoned for the peoples sin. His voice carried the words of God. Moses parted the red sea. But in his shadow stood a man who symbolizes forever our great High Priest: Aaron.

This book opened up such a greater understanding.
This is a book I would recommend to anyone wanting greater understanding of the old testament. The Father's love and why we need Jesus sacrifice. we to are just like Moses Aaron and the Israelite slaves coming out of Egypt.

Pointing to the perfect High Priest
The story of a man. A man who is called by God, and set aside. He is molded into a more humble person as he is faced with challenges that he cannot fulfill to perfection. He fails, repents, regrets and obeys as good as he can. He is ordained as high priest, and set apart, sanctified. Yet, he is constantly reminded of his shortcomings, and at the end of his long life he pleads for God to send a perfect High Priest, a Saviour who can bring the perfect sacrifice. Again, Francine Rivers has written, from a wonderfully personal angle, of the spiritual struggle that a person is faced with in his life on this earth. Pointing to the Saviour who sees our struggle and forgives our trespasses, making us His children as we trust in Him.

I'm glad I persisted
I found this book a little slow but I persisted and am glad I did. It follows the Bible events closely bringing alive the realities of the exodus from Egypt, and the wilderness wanderings. The lessons to be learnt from these events stood out to me as the storyline progressed. I will be listening to this book again.

Bible based, enjoyable and thought provoking.
The author does a great job of setting the scene and providing additional background information to justify and perhaps explain the choices of the character. The listener is left to feel they know the character so well they can almost understand and predict the characters decisions. Although fictional to a fashion it's obvious the writer has explored the culture and history of the era.
The objective of the book is not to teach doctrine but nonetheless its insightful and thought provoking nature leaves the reader with glimpses containing some great lessons and truths pertaining to the Old Testament.
The narrator does well conveying many different voices and is constant in the tone and pitch presented. Perhaps not as skilled as some of the great narrators but takes little away from the book. The narration was easy to listen too and held my attention but may be subject to individual taste.
Thoroughly enjoyed. A worthwhile book.
