A Story of Faithful Leadership for Children of All Ages.
By Nicole Parker, illustrated by Anya Kinsley & Surasak Tharapasook
Book 1 of the Tales of Canaan series finds Asher, Zara, and Iru learning from Moses that courageous leaders must be watchful shepherds, looking out and looking in.
With the wilderness behind them at last, Joshua and Caleb's children excitedly dream of the delights of growing up in Canaan. Roaming the peaceful green pastures on the edge of the Promised Land, what could go wrong now?
But, Moses warns Asher, Zara and Iru, courageous leaders must be watchful shepherds, focusing their eyes wisely first upward, then inward and outward. The threats of lurking predators and spies pale in comparison with the alarming peril of the cherished sin in Israelite hearts.
When the spies return from exploring Canaan, wild revolt unexpectedly erupts. Can a few courageous, faith-filled leaders stand against the rebellion of millions? Or will the rioters in the camp succeed in their murderous plot? Amid the most terrifying circumstances, can fierce faith fight gear?
Join Asher, Zara and Iru in the most breathtaking battle of their lives-and the ultimate discovery that faith is the wellspring of courage.
