Come away to ancient Jerusalem in the time of King Solomon - a city of great splendor and great squalor, of many gods and goddesses, of paupers and kings. Behold the beating heart of the Middle East, whose economic and political affairs reach far and wide and impact lands hundreds of miles away. Barbarism and wisdom. Lust and love. The most senseless violence and the most exquisite wisdom. All are joined together in Alexander Kuprin's brilliant Sulamyth.

In the heart of ancient Jerusalem, there lived an ordinary follower whose journey was anything but ordinary. He walked in the shadow of greatness, a disciple who followed from a distance, yet his passion burned bright. He started well, but his path was marked by flaws and moments of faltering. Yet, in the crucible of adversity, he emerged as a beacon of strength, and a pillar of faith. Entrusted by God to share the Good News of His Son, this follower's story is both familiar and untold. We know the portion of his tale where he denies and doubts, where he stumbles and falls. But what of the ...

It is evident in the Genesis account that Abram had a religious encounter with a new Deity that became a life changing and revolutionary experience. So radical was the encounter that Abram even heard the voice of his new God and his message challenged Abram like never before.

Thus the journey for Abram began.

Do you enjoy listening to moving stories packed with adventure, romance, and intrigue?
