I’m from a small town on the West Coast of America (I’d rather not give more detail than that 😀). I’m able to get around town, especially to the library, on my bike, since everything is so close together.
The novel is about two orphaned (wow, what a surprise, I know) brothers who live in a large city. They are called by the King (God) to go on a quest across the world and end Argadom’s (Satan’s) reign. The allegory is about the Christian life, and how God takes care of His followers as they follow His will. Here’s the blurb:
The Dawning Age is coming; a new light is rising.
Josiah and Luke are orphans. Their father was killed four years ago, and their mother vanished.
When a mysterious messenger appears in a prosperous city in Urkin, two brothers are trusted with a perilous mission: retake Gorkala for the King.
Quickly, Josiah and Luke discover they cannot do it alone. How can they accomplish such a daring quest?
If they fail, Jolara will be plunged into eternal darkness, and The Dawning Age will come to a premature end.
The Dawning Age is a medieval/fantasy allegory.
If you like Christian principles weaved into a thrilling adventure, then you will love The Dawning Age.
Experience this challenging story today.
I don’t know if this counts as a Bible study, but I’ve been reading through the Bible with the plan of reading the whole book this year. I’m also wanting to do a study on the fear of the Lord.
My favorite book is likely Psalms. It has so much encouragement for all times of life.
I think David would take that spot, partially to do with a book I read some years ago, Fugitive King. His early life, running from Saul, is definitely action movie worthy. I really admire his humble beginning, and how he always returned to God after some very disastrous sins.
I don’t necessarily have a life verse at this time, though this would be the closest to one I can think of.
“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,” -Hebrews 12:1
I like to play with my younger siblings often, but other than that, not much. I’ve been sprinting this last stretch of my novel, really pushing to finish it.
