A wealthy and virtuous man faces the ultimate test of faith in this suspenseful and inspiring modern retelling of Job by the author of The Runaway Prophet. Â Seth Jacobs has it allâhealth, wealth, a great career, a mansion in greater Boston, a beautiful wife, and three children. But in a series of reversals beyond his control, Seth loses his many fortunes one after the next. His friends, who suggest God has a reason for inflicting so much loss and pain upon him, challenge Sethâs faith. Â At the lowest depths of his suffering, Seth asks Godâas we all doââWhy is this happening to me?â And he receives an unexpected answer. A modern-day story based on the Bibleâs Book of Job, The Faithful One inspires us all to keep our faith in the Lord no matter what. Â âChynoweth constructsâand then deconstructsâSethâs life with an eye for detail and an inventive sense of how one tragedy can beget the next.â âKirkus Reviews |
