Yep, the ornery-looking girl in the too-tight jeans with a mischievous grin—that’s me, back in my BC days. At that stage of life, I wanted nothing to do with Jesus and I hated history. Couldn’t stand to be in the same room with my parents and refused to crack open a Bible. Typical rebellious teen. I remember spouting off to my U.S. History teacher—face-to-face, …
I’m gonna start out a little morbid today but stay with me…we’ll have a hopeful ending. I want to tell you about a few dark weeks back in 1997.

I’m guessing you’ve never thought of Batman while reading the book of Isaiah. Me neither. But in Isaiah’s Daughter, this courageous prophet must slip through a secret entrance in his personal wine cellar and enter a honeycomb of underground caves to rescue his friends. I thought he was a little super-hero-ish as I wrote some of his courageous decisions. His words. His deeds.
