The Struggle for Courage: In the Days of Jezebel (Faith building biblical historical novels of love, hope, and courage set in ancient Israel) (The Strugglers)

A weak king. A ruthless queen. A man who must make an impossible choice to protect the woman he loves. Obadiah, the governor of King Ahab’s palace, has been secretly sheltering dozens of Israel’s prophets from Jezebel, who has already slaughtered hundreds in her murderous wrath. With his friends and the love of his life, Anna, Obadiah has risked his life to bring food and water to the cave where the prophets evade the queen’s fury. Obadiah has planned to marry Anna since he fell in love with the precocious little girl feeding him mudpies, but as Jezebel’s bloodlust grows, Obadiah’s fears for Anna’s safety intensify. When he’s forced to make an impossible decision, the consequences are more devastating than he could have imagined. When an unthinkable tragedy strikes Anna’s family, she is bereft, feeling abandoned by the one person she thought she could trust–Obadiah. Now, with her life in greater peril than ever, Anna faces a choice of her own, one that will test her strength and courage like never before. The Struggle for Courage: In the Days of Jezebel is a unique story full of twists and turns you won’t see coming. It’s a story of sacrificial love and courage that will inspire you to the same.
