In the Court of the King (Captivity and Release, #1) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Captured from Jerusalem as a teenager and taken to a foreign country teeming with wealth and hedonism, whose king thinks he is a god, Daniel has a choice. Will he cling to the values he has been taught? Why not acquiesce to his captors, go with the flow in morality, and toss his strict Hebrew belief in an omniscient God? This choice haunts Daniel for the 70 years he serves four different Babylonian and Persian monarchs. When he finally learns that the time of captivity is over, will he still want to go home to Jerusalem?
These stories from the book of Daniel show what it means to take a stand against compromise, intimidation, and raw fear. They are told chronologically as Daniel serves under Kings Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, Darius, and Cyrus, the King of Persia. Daniel's life gives us a picture of how to live in a world hostile to one's beliefs.
God's ministry to Daniel is witnessed in Daniel's unique ability to interpret dreams, read the mysterious handwriting on the wall,and record frightening visions regarding the future.
In the Court of the King uniquely fills the gap between children's Bible stories and adult Bible study.

Autorenporträt

I like to write, read, teach, sing, play the piano, swim, cook, play in the yard, and walk by the ocean. I prefer coloring books to plain paper, summer to winter, daytime to nightime, and morning to afternoon. I like large families, but I prefer to visit with one friend at a time. I love to study the Bible and discuss what God is doing in the world today, but I can't handle really scary adventure novels. I am more interested in people and animals than in rocks and plants.
I tutor reading and writing and prefer second graders. I live with my husband Bill and cat Sasha in the center of California.
