Overview

A Flame of Hope: Abital's Story - is book six in the Mysteries & Wonders of the Bible fiction series.

Abital spends her days preparing rich fabrics and making fine gowns for Jezebel, the queen of Israel. However, she cannot ignore how the king and queen have broken Israel's covenant with Yahweh and introduced the worship of Baal, Asherah, and other false idols. Even when a prophet named Elijah confronts the king and tells him Israel will be punished by a devastating drought for his wickedness, Ahab refuses to change his ways.

As the weeks go by and no rain falls, Abital watches as Queen Jezebel's offerings to Baal become more and more desperate. When the queen issues a horrific decree, Abital can no longer stand by. She teams up with Obadiah, a palace official who is loyal to Yahweh, to save as many lives as possible from the queen's rage.

Can Abital and Obadiah continue their good work for the One True God? Or will they be next to face the queen's wrath?
