Mary, Chosen of God
Checking Availibility...Description
Mary is ordinary girl from Nazareth. She helps her mother with household chores, she daydreams about a handsome carpenter's son named Joseph, and at night she lies on the roof and contemplates at the stars. But one evening, a heavenly visitor comes with unexpected news--and her life is changed forever.
Experience the life of the Messiah from the perspective of His mother, who must place her trust and obedience in Adonai, the Most High, as He fulfills centuries of anticipation in the middle of her daily life. Walk with Mary as she witnesses Yeshua grow, mature, minister, and even be crucified--and then raised again, to the kindling of her new faith.

Reviews
"This portrayal of Mary, mother of the Messiah, takes you inside her head and heart, allowing you to breathe the air of Hebrew family, food, and worship. Her much-repeated prayer, O God who sees me, may well become your own. True to the scriptural account, this story puts flesh on the bones of history. Yeshua lives!"

"Diana Wallis Taylor takes the reader into the everyday life of Mary, the mother of Jesus. We experience the wonder, the hardships, and the heartache right along with her. I love how close to Scripture this narrative is! As well as historically accurate. I've done a lot of research of the Roman era, and this novel's depiction of the society, the settings, and the interactions are true to reality, as best we can recreate it. This is truly a book readers will have a hard time putting down."
