On This Foundation

The Restoration Chronicles, Book 3

By: Lynn Austin

Narrated by: Suzanne Toren

The Powerful Concluding Novel to The Restoration Chronicles

When news that the wall of Jerusalem is broken down and its gates have been burned with fire, Nehemiah, Jewish cupbearer to King Artaxerxes in Persia, seeks God's guidance. After fasting and prayer, he's given leave to travel to Jerusalem and rebuild the city wall, not anticipating all the dangers that await him on his arrival. The leaders of the surrounding nations become his fierce enemies, plotting to assassinate him and halt the work. A drought, meanwhile, has left the country impoverished, many families resorting to selling their children as bondservants just to keep from starving.

Capturing the rebuilding of the wall through the eyes of a number of characters, On This Foundation is a powerful exploration of faith in the midst of oppression and hope that, in spite of appearances, the gracious hand of God is upon those who believe.

Great series

the story was well written, the narrator did a great job. easy listen, easy to follow.

bible based story

I enjoyed how the author weaved a lovely story around the biblical account of a Nehemiah. it was believable and sweet and courageous.

Great presentation

I really enjoyed this book. Lynn's writing and Suzanne narrative skill is a winning combination. I

My favorite in the series. Loved them all.

I don’t know when I’ve ever enjoyed a series as much as I enjoyed these books. I couldn’t wait to hear more. These stories bring the Old Testament to life. I wondered if it’s right to add words to a story from the Bible but I’ve settled in my mind that words were not added to the Bible but stories from the Bible were simply made into novels that helped me understand life in the Old Testament times.

Excellent depiction of History.

Loved the entire Trilogy. each book got better and better. can't wait to read more Lynn Austin books.
