These twelve stories from the Bible bring us close to the heroes and heroines in them: David, Daniel, Esther, Susanna (whose story was expurgated from the Bible), Samson, Joshua, Jonah and others. Recreated and retold for our troubled times, these stories speak out to us of passions, loves and battles in a way that will prompt people to rediscover the wonders of the past in a truly contemporary light. How was the evil dictator in 'The Handwriting on the Wall' undone?
How did one man - Joshua - destroy a seemingly indestructible empire? What was the true gift to us of 'the good Samaritan'? What really brought down the Tower of Babel? The Honey and The Fires is that rare book: both timeless and of our time.
