A Lineage of Grace: Five Stories of Unlikely Women Who Changed Eternity by Francine Rivers

A Lineage of Grace: Five Stories of Unlikely Women Who Changed Eternity by Francine Rivers-

"In this compilation of the five books in the best-selling Lineage of Grace series by Francine Rivers, we meet the five women whom God chose—Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary. Each was faced with extraordinary—even scandalous—challenges. Each took great personal risk to fulfill her calling. Each was destined to play a key role in the lineage of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the World."

Francine Rivers is one of my favorite authors! Here are all of her Lineage Of Grace books together!You can even get it for your Kindle.

Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers

Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers-

"California's gold country, 1850. A time when men sold their souls for a bag of gold and women sold their bodies for a place to sleep. 

Angel expects nothing from men but betrayal. Sold into prostitution as a child she survives by keeping her hatred alive. And what she hates most are the men who use her, leaving her empty and dead inside. 

Then she meets Michael Hosea. A man who seeks his Father's heart in everything, Michael obeys God's call to marry Angel and to love her unconditionally. Slowly, day by day, he defies Angel's every bitter expectation, until despite her resistance, her frozen heart begins to thaw. 

But with her unexpected softening come overwhelming feelings of unworthiness and fear. And so Angel runs. Back to the darkness, away from her husband's pursuing love, terrified of the truth she no longer can deny: Her final healing must come from the One who loves her even more than Michael does ... the One who will never let her go."

This is one of the best books I have ever read, both Christian and non-Christian.  The story really draws you in and the author has a way of making her characters real.  This was the book I read that made me want to read the rest of her stuff.

You can buy this book on Amazon!

Her Mother's Hope by Francine Rivers

Her Mother's Hope by Francine Rivers-

I have this book on my list!  I have been a fan of this book for a while and would like to read it soon.

"The first in an epic two-book saga by beloved author Francine Rivers, this sweeping story explores the complicated relationships between mothers and daughters over several generations. Near the turn of the 20th century, fiery Marta leaves Switzerland determined to find life on her own terms. Her journey takes her through Europe and finally lands her with children and husband in tow in the central valley of California. Marta’s experiences convince her that only the strong survive. Hildie, Marta’s oldest daughter, has a heart to serve others, and her calling as a nurse gives her independence, if not the respect of her mother. Amid the drama of WWII, Hildie marries and begins a family of her own. She wants her daughter never to doubt her love—but the challenges of life conspire against her vow. Each woman is forced to confront her faulty but well-meaning desire to help her daughter find her God-given place in the world."


I find her books to be very interesting and though out.  I really have enjoyed every single one of the ones I have read.  


You can find this book on the Kindle as well!
