Abraham: chosen by God to father a nation.
Sarah: his beautiful, strong-willed wife.
Theirs was a story of love and determination so compelling it has endured for centuries.
Brought vividly to life by Dorr, a master of historical drama, this epic story sweeps from the pagan rituals of Ur to barren desert encampments, from the white-walled palaces of Egypt's pharoah to the land God promised to give Abraham and hid descendants...

This is a really great book. Benny does an excellent job of introducing the reader to the Holy Spirit. It is written in a friendly style - you can imagine sitting over a cup of coffee and just having a friendly conversation about the Anointing. Highly recommended!
