Reseña del editor:

A splendid exploration of faith against great odds and love that endures years of disappointment.

Abraham and Sarah is a masterful historical drama from the moment that Abraham strides into the pagan temple to rescue Sarah. The couple set out in search of the blessings God had promised: abundant fertile land and decedents more plentiful than the stars.

But years of wandering bring the couple to Egypt where once again Abraham convinces Sarah that as sister and brother surely they will pass safely through the territory. But Pharaoh takes Sarah into his harem where she befriends Pharaoh's daughter, Hagar. Together the three are ordered to leave.

Years of barrenness have embittered Sarah and she hatches a plan: Hagar must become the vessel for the child God has promised. Ishmael is born to Hagar and so is jealousy born in Sarah's heart. But God had a plan and He was right all along. This miracle unfolds with Historical authenticity leaving the reader with a better understanding of the ancient world and the life-changing faith of Abraham and Sarah.

Contraportada:

Against great odds,
they found love-only to endure
years of disappointment.

God promised abundant, fertile land and descendants more plentiful than the stars for Abraham and Sarah. But they don't trust God to carry out his plan-in his time.

Abraham and Sarah begin to tire of waiting for the fulfillment of God's promise.

Fearing for their lives, Abraham lies to Pharaoh causing him to evict the couple from Egypt along with Pharaoh's daughter, Hagar. When the barren years linger on, Sarah hatches a plan of her own to become a mother-ignoring God and ultimately causing a family division that ripples through the generations.

When the resulting miracle unfolds, the reader encounters the life-altering love of God.
