Part of what I love most about research is the stunning discoveries that come with every project. I never dreamed high-priest Jehoiada was in his mid-nineties when he married 16-year-old Jehosheba. (Ewww!) Together, they saved King David’s lineage from Queen Athaliah’s murderous rampage (see 2 Kings 11; In the Shadow of Jezebel). Who’d have thought Jacob’s daughter, Dinah, was a …
Ho-ho-how do we ignore the commercialism associated with Christmas and focus on the ho-ho-holy God who invaded earth in a lowly manger? Perhaps it would help to remember that our struggle is neither new to our generation nor unique to our culture. When Joseph was released from prison and elevated to the second-highest ruler in Egypt, he also faced unique challenging …

Last month I offered surveys in both my blog and newsletter asking what interests you about: research, …
Let me begin this post by assuring you that after twelve novels, “bad” reviews aren’t nearly as discouraging as they were in the early days. Also, I’m fairly certain I would have gotten a few MORE “bad” reviews on Potiphar’s Wife if it were my first or second novel instead of my twelfth. Why? Most of the folks who review my books now …
Egypt lauded Ra’s lovely chantress, whose heart was stolen by an ambitious priest named Potiphera.
In the powerful prequel to In Feast or Famine, Katesch was taken from her beloved son to become Pharaoh’s Songbird of Memphis. Her influence gains favor for an ambitious young priest named Potiphera. Drought scorches the land. Conspiracies thrive. Loyalties shift. Lives are lost. Can sacrifice free the Songbird from her gilded cage?
