This is kind of where I sort of fell in love with like historical fiction was kind of this era with the Francine Rivers Mark and the Lion series.

Especially if you're talking about major authors, major books.
Charity MiddletonHOST
12:31
Yeah.
Brett NelsonHOST
12:32
The reason e-books are priced the same amount as the paperback or more is because when they publish a Francine Rivers book or whoever, Jodi Picoult, they print so many, 100,000, a million books per first run.
Brett NelsonHOST

Okay.

And one book that I read and absolutely loved was one book that was called Her Mother's Hope by Francine Rivers.
Phyllis MwateePANELIST
34:26
So it's, um, historical family saga, I think begins in the 1901, and of course, I do read once in a while the inspiration books.
Marnie ChestertonHOST

Sarah WendellHOST

An example is Joanna Lindsay's 1991 Avon release, Prisoner of My Desire, which graphically depicts female-to-male rape.

Kelly MatsudairaHOST
26:54
The first one was Bridge to Haven by Francine Rivers.
Kelly MatsudairaHOST
26:57
This one broke my heart because Redeeming Love is one of my all-time favorite Christian historical romance books.
Kelly MatsudairaHOST
27:04
I gave that five stars and it was actually my book of the year in 2023.
Kelly MatsudairaHOST
27:09

Like you said, whenever I finish one and it hit a book that has pointed me to Jesus and that has felt authentic and has encouraged me in my own walk with the Lord.
Sarah Ruth HicknerHOST
38:00
And so whenever I finish this, I think, why do I read anything other than Christian fiction? Because I feel like during that time that I am reading that book, I am like walking with the Lord closer and so just like you said so i love that so much um i am going to i don't know what you mean by back in the day but if you haven't read the mark of the lion series by francine rivers you have to i
