Overview
Among the Giants: Achsah's Story - is book four in the Mysteries & Wonders of the Bible fiction series.
Achsah has heard her father's stories of entering the promised land only to be forced to turn back. For many years, the Israelites have battled the giants—first under Joshua's leadership, then that of her father, Caleb. He has his warriors' respect, yet they refuse to advance and end the fight against the last tribe of giants. Especially when Joshua's death threatens their confidence.
Achsah's faith, however, remains steadfast that Yahweh will provide a victory. To inspire his warriors, Caleb promises Achsah's hand to the man who conquers Kiriath-sepher. Achsah doubts anyone would want a strong-willed woman like herself. But to her great surprise, Othniel—a quiet man favored by her father—rises to the challenge. He carries a secret devotion to the fierce Achsah and hopes to win her heart. Can she return his love and encourage his leadership as the first judge of Israel? And together, can they return the Israelites to the One True God before disaster strikes again?
