Goodreads Summary
Anna the Prophetess is the dramatic chronicle of the only woman to be called a prophetess in the Gospels. When Anna’s great-niece Julia is exiled to Jerusalem as punishment for her refusal to marry a man old enough to be her father, Anna shares the story of her early days of courtship with her husband. Although Julia’s parents admonished her to observe firsthand how lonely Anna’s life is, Julia instead discovers that her great-aunt’s life is far from lonely. Instead, Anna’s story is one of love, peace, and incredible faith.
As Anna shares her unwavering testimony of the coming Messiah with her great-niece, these two faithful women are changed forever as they seek the Lord’s will in their lives and joyfully witness the long-awaited sign of Christ’s birth.
My Review
Author H. B. Moore has a talent for bringing the scriptures to life. I love the heartfelt and caring perspective she brings to these amazing historical characters. As I read this book, I could only imagine the real Anna as she awaited the birth of the Savior. I loved the addition of the fictional Julia and what she able to learn from Anna and her wisdom. The alternative timeline was enjoyable and a great way to get to know who Anna could have been. I enjoyed Julia and her journey and the small miracles that came along the way.
5 out of 5 stars.
