This book should be read by all people who want to understand God. It is written in a simple yet profound way that both inspires and convicts the reader. It also answers the question, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" I have read other books by Gene Edwards and I was excited to read this one. Like all of his other books, I LOVED this one. This is one of those few books that can change your life.

Great story about John the Baptist, I read through in one sitting. I enjoyed this short story. I will most likely read through it again.

Absolutely inspiring. Gene Edwards has the ability to take a particularly disturbing event in the scripture and describe it in a way that we will never forget.

Review 6 for The Prisoner in the Third Cell - eBook
Perhaps the pain you are going through at the hands of families, friends or enemies doesn't make any sense right now. You have cried out to God, but His answers don't seem to add up. This book is an incredible reminder that only God sees the BIG PICTURE of our lives. And His answers don't always seem to match our questions... Having just gone through a period of life where I was that prisoner in the third cell I only wish I had access to the book sooner.

Review 7 for The Prisoner in the Third Cell - eBook
This book is fantastic. It really makes you come to terms with your trust in God. Are you willing to serve a God who is sovereign and does not have to explain His actions or His ways to you? Great book that I will read over and over again.

Review 8 for The Prisoner in the Third Cell - eBook
A great work of fiction, this dramatic story give us a look at John the Baptist, imprisoned by Herod and awaiting death, as he struggles to understand a Lord who did not live up to his expectations. It gives a whole new perspective on what faith means. John's struggle to understand the whys of his situation echoes our own. When it turns to Jesus POV and how He wanted to reveal things to John, it's one of those "wow" moments that give you some understanding of God's ways. Its a book of comfort and an eye-opening look at what this thing called faith is all about. A book all Christians should read. It adds foundation the great words of Charles Spurgeon: "When you can't trace God's hand, trust His heart."

Review 11 for The Prisoner in the Third Cell - eBook
Wow! This is an amazing little book that presents the story of John the Baptist from a perspective I doubt that most people have ever considered! You will feel as if you are right there in the story with John and you will connect with him not merely as a "hero of the faith" but as a real person. The story is a fictional account but it is based on the true story of John the Baptist from Scripture. In fact, it is more than just "based" on it because every element from the story here is consistent with Scripture and history. Gene is a wonderful storyteller and has created dialogue and included historical elements to piece the story of John's life together in a way that introduces you to the real character. The story does not depart from Scriptural truth at all but actually will help the reader to see it in a clearer, more personal and meaningful light. The message of this book will grip your heart and pull you closer to Jesus Christ. If you are struggling as a Christian, whatever your circumstance (be it sickness, emotional pain, depression, discouragement, or just feeling and wondering if God has forgotten about you or that He has not lived up to your expectations of Him) this is a remarkable book you need to read. It may change your entire perspective on suffering and give you strength and hope when all seems to be crumbling around you. I wish I could have shared this book with my father before he passed away. This book is not what you expect and it is not typical. Gene himself is no stranger to suffering and brokenness and God has revealed much to this brother. Gene has such a tender heart for the Lord and this element of his life is so beautifully sensed in his writing. Highly recommended reading. In fact, all of the books by this author are quite good.
