About this listen

Striking beauty comes at a price. Rahab paid it when at the age of 15 she was sold into prostitution by the one man she loved and trusted—her father. With her keen mind and careful planning she turned heartache into success, achieving independence while still young. And she vowed never again to trust a man. Any man. God had other plans. Into the emotional turmoil of her world walked Salmone, a prominent leader of Judah, held in high esteem by all Israel. A man of faith, honor, and pride. An enemy. What is a woman with a wrecked past to do when she wants to be loved, yet no longer believes it possible? The walls of Jericho are only the beginning. The real battle for Rahab will be one of the heart.

Beautiful

Such an amazing story. The Bible doesn’t go into much detail about how Rahab coped once admitted to Israel. Tessa explores the feelings and emotions of Rahab and Salmon; whilst always intermingling God’s character and mercy. I can’t verbalize how much I enjoyed this book. It let me see a version of how our Lord Jesus Christ sees his bride... us, the New Jerusalem.
Thank you Tessa! I felt the Lord speaking to me personally.

A must hear/read

All amazing except for the very out of place and irritating music at the end and beginning of chapters.

Brilliant storytelling
