Tender Mercies

Tender Mercies: Elizabeth's Story is the fifth book in the Extraordinary Women of the Bible historical fiction series.



Elizabeth has always longed for a baby. But after years of trying to conceive with her husband, Zechariah, a priest, she is now long past childbearing age, and her marriage is hanging on by a thread. With all hopes seemingly dashed, Elizabeth prays one last time for a child. Soon, when Gabriel, an archangel of God, visits Zechariah and announces the good news of Elizabeth's impending pregnancy, the priest is shocked beyond belief and becomes a mute. His wife is similarly incredulous. Can she-after years of disappointment and heartache-really bear a child? Come along on Elizabeth's miraculous journey and discover how God uses her pregnancy to heal her strained marriage, restore her reputation, and-most of all-make way for the coming of the Savior of the world.
