Why Get This Book

If you believe you've gone too far to be loved, this novel was written for that ache. California's gold country, 1850. Angel was sold into prostitution as a child and expects nothing from men but betrayal. Then Michael Hosea obeys God's call to marry her and love her without conditions, day after day, while she runs back to the darkness. It's a retelling of the book of Hosea and a picture of God's pursuing love. Honest note: it deals frankly with abuse and sexual exploitation, so it's for adults, not kids. Next step: read Hosea 3:1 and remember that this is how God pursues you.
