Author Jerry Jenkins has cleverly juxtaposed the story of God's anointed apostle Paul with the present day discovery of well-preserved papers documenting the complete story of Paul's devotion and thoughts during his final imprisonment in Rome.Scholars encourage the revelation of Paul's autobiogra...
I received a copy of the book I Saul from Worthy Publishing in exchange for a review of this book. This review is my honest opinion.I am not a fan of fiction. Fiction is to unreal to me. So I was a little nervous and excited at the same time about reading this book. Especially with the authors tr...

Guided by his mother's firm and st...
This book is so sad. I just couldn't get it out of my head how much tragedy she went through, and it was all rushed over (especially the last two deaths) like it didn't bother her after awhile and just became par for course. I think if it had been written by a woman, we would have gotten some m...

Judd said as the man shoved him and Lionel inside. Samuel led them to two chairs in the living room. “You were trying to help Ben-Judah escape,” Samuel said. “Doesn’t matter what I did to catch you.” “He won’t escape,” Samuel’s father said. “You can’t hold us here,” Judd said. “We didn’t do anyth...
She had been in a house that size only twice before, both times for parties. She hadn’t felt comfortable then either. But this was different. There was no party here. There was no one here but the two of them. When was the last time she had been alone with a teenage boy without winding up drinkin...
Most of the chiefs Paul had met were fairly buttoned-down bureaucratic types. Lester “Tick” Harrelson was about five-foot-six and 140 pounds. He had a shock of dry hair through which he was constantly—and ineffectively—running a hand. His tie was loose, and he had trouble keeping his shirt tucked...
He simmered several jargid over a fire, along with shock fish and skolers. As twilight approached, and with waves crashing along the shoreline, Owen knelt in the sand by a swaying palmetto, where Mordecai touched both his shoulders with the sword, conferring on him the full rights and responsibil...
Sometimes reading helps, but I was so gripped by the book I was reading that it kept me up. That and Pippin and Frodo barking. Mom drove Bryce and me to the elementary school later that afternoon. Parents and leaders had a pre-sleepover meeting, complete with pizza and sub sandwiches. The kids wo...

The paralyzing fear that the GC would show up and bust them was gone, but anytime the kids heard a strange noise they knew it could be trouble. She stayed behind a tree and watched. Vicki couldn’t place the driver and the other passenger, but she knew Mark’s smile. He jumped out and introduced Ca...
It was the perfect chance to talk with Mrs. Garcia. I sat with my brown bag and watched as she spoke with the cooks. She finally came to the cash register when a wave of students washed through. I got in line. “How’s Ashley today?” she said. “You want the truth or just the smile?” She looked at m...
It was a Great Dane mix and looked like a horse. The dog snarled, the hair on its back standing up straight. Judd had confronted dogs before, but he had never faced an animal this big. “If I were you, I’d take your hands out slowly and stay very still,” Dr. Rose said. “Princess doesn’t like unann...
By the time Jack wheeled into the parking garage downtown at Chicago Police headquarters, Boone had texted Pete Wade. He had first bounced off Jack the idea of just informing Pete that they needed to talk. “That could spook him, Boones. You have to make him think he’s gotten to you, not make him ...
He awoke in the middle of the night, sweating. The whole experience felt like a bad dream. Surely Nada would walk through the door any minute, and everything would be all right. But what had happened wasn’t a dream. Each time he awoke and realized she was gone, he felt a stab in the heart. Mr. St...
The Valley of Shoam, the Castle of the Pines, Erol’s clan, the islands of Mirantha, the White Mountain, a Dragon, the King? Uh-huh. “I was on a trip,” Owen said. The radio squawked something about an attack. “Buckle up, kid. We need to take this call.” They raced down a residential street and int...
He sat on the edge of his bed, mapping the day—distracted, edgy, wondering when or if the voice of God might invade his mind. If yesterday was only a test, it would be counter to everything he knew about Him. The One he served would never make a promise and not fulfill it. Zeke was grateful the L...
He appeared to be having the time of his life, and she could hear his high-pitched laugh from way across the park. Apparently Alfonso was it, and Florence could tell he was running slowly after Max on purpose. He could have easily run the boy down with his strong, athletic stride. How nice for Ma...
Rachel said, stroking her husband’s scant hair. “We lived in a cottage on the castle grounds, and I tended a portion of the King’s gardens. They were the best years of our lives.” Owen said, “He mentioned a son.” The Scribe looked to his wife. “We had a son and two daughters, didn’t we?” She nodd...
Josey was saying, crying openly. “I knew all that channeling, crystal, New Age stuff had nothing for me, but I was desperate. I had not been to church since I was a little girl, but I remembered there was supposed to be a God who loved me.” “Why didn’t you go back to church?” Vicki asked. “I beli...
What else could he be? He had overheard Vicki trying to explain his situation, and she was exactly right. In truth, he wanted to believe exactly what these other kids believed. It all made sense. His friend, Raymie Steele, had warned him. And it seemed most of the people who had disappeared were ...
I announced in the locker room after the first practice following tryouts. I set the box of game jerseys on the table and the players cheered as I pulled out the first one—number 88—and fired it across the locker room to Yash, who snagged it. “Be bout the only thing I catch this year, huh?” ...
“Tell me about it,” Keller said. “All the fun stuff happens at night. I didn’t get into this racket to coax cats out of trees or check the credentials of door-to-door salesmen.” “The gangbangers pretty much sleep during the day too.” “Oh, I knew you could do it, Boones. You went almost the whole ...
Judd also told them about the meeting the next morning. “I’d like to sit in on that,” Gunther said. Westin smiled. “No reason we can’t.” It was late and everyone was tired. Westin suggested they backtrack to a hotel he had seen on the way and get some sleep. While they drove to the hotel, Judd ph...
“That will give me time to show you some of what’s happened since you left,” Sam said. Sam showed them several meeting places used since the fire at General Zimmerman’s home. A few were secluded, where people could secretly ask questions without fear of Global Community crackdown. Others were out...
No one grumbled. They had somehow turned a corner and were now excited and bold about the task before them. Even Ryan and Lionel seemed to be getting along. Judd asked that they find good seats in the sanctuary, which was already filling, and he hurried down to the office to see Bruce. Loretta, B...
“Why did I care for those eggs so well,” she said, “when I should have known my family was dying?” “You couldn’t know,” Rogers said. “You were working to keep them alive.” A shout came from the edge of the camp. “Vaxor on horseback!” Starbuck and Rogers left Talea to gather with the warriors. The...
Yet he had. He figured out how to make the seat back recline, and he was soon staring at the dark ceiling, his eyes beginning to grow accustomed to the low light. He folded his arms across his chest and forced himself to breathe more and more slowly. He had to relax, needed to get some rest if he...
