Customer Reviews for Tyndale House A Lineage of Grace
Tyndale House A Lineage of Grace
In this compilation of the five books of 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.

I loved this book. The enrichment of the basic stories from the Bible were very believable and related to the world today. Any reader of this book will be able to relate to the stories. Enjoying this book does not require an in-depth knowledge of the Bible so I would recommend to all readers.

I purchased this book after reading Redeeming Love by this same author, so I had high expectations. I was excited to learn more about the five Biblical women. This book exceeded my high exceptions and upon completing it, I now feel like I better understand these women and their stories, as well as what it was like during their time and the way God's people felt as they experienced God's love, mercy and judgement. The book is divided into five sections and each section into chapter. Each section covers a different character and her story, staying true to the scriptures but adding some details and dialogue to help bring the stories to life. At the end of each chapter you get to read the actual text from the Bible (I liked this so I could compare what parts were actually from the Bible vs. the parts that the author addds) as well as other scripture to help analyze and dig deeper into the story and lessons learned. Love this book! Am only sad its over.

This set of stories of women of the Bible was inspiring and encouraging in many ways. Insight into their character and their lifestyle was touching as well as motivating. I felt as though I could relate to these women who all loved the Lord so much and understood their place of significance in the Bible so much better. I highly recommend this book.

Taken as a novel, you can understand how these women lives MAY have lead them and how they felt. Very well written and close to scripture.

Great book! I love how the author has written from the point of view of a few women that we "know" from the Bible but whom we have little background on. (Rahab, Bathsheba, Tamar, etc.) The author does a great job of painting a picture of what the women's full experience might have been like and the different emotions they must have felt throughout it.

I had read the book about Ruth, as I am studying women of
the Bible, to get all five condensed in one volumn was ideal.
Have read about Tamar and am truly satisfied. Love the
book and would recommend it to anyone interested in
women in the Bible.

Francine Rivers is so gifted. She makes these people of the Bible come to life. I pick up anything she writes and can't put it down till I've read it all.

I have been a fan of Francine Rivers for some years now, but I was hesitant to read her novels on these women of the Bible. I was afraid that suppositions would dilute the accuracy of the Biblical record. However, Rivers' skill at telling a great story made this a book that was hard to put down. Additionally, her attention to detail, both Biblical and cultural, made me go back and reread the Biblical passages to see how she came to her interpretations of the possible stories of these women's lives. I was surprised at what she had gleaned from the Scriptures that I had overlooked. I also appreciated the study guide after each story, and the constant reminder that these were only her interpretations. I realized that God has a lot to teach us through these five unlikely ancestors of Christ, and I look forward to reading this book again.

I was pleasently surprised by the indepth research of Mrs. Rivers' team to tackel biblical characters and still maintain a somewhat hermeneutical balance. We need to be careful not to let scripture speak where it has maintained silence.
Non the less, Rivers, true to her novelist approach, gives us brief glimpes of what could have happened and still keep true as a fiction novelist.
I found this book riveting and i highly recommend it anyone who love God and loves grace. Thank you Francine for being a Godly authors. Great read.

Purchased this book twice for gifts for ladies. Couldn't put it down once I started reading, it goes quickly. Stories, based on actual women, are so alive and real. The last section was a little harder for me to get through because it gets emotionally deeper to tread through it. Loved what I 'took away' from the book that any woman is good enough for God and He can use any woman, in any situation. We don't have to be perfect and we are good enough just as we are!

I really enjoy reading this author's books because I learn Bible facts along with the story of people's lives. The chronological order of these five women's lives and the historical facts about the way they lived is fascinating. The way God works in each person's life all the way to Jesus is "awesome". I appreciate the research, study and work this author brings with her writing. Thank you!
