About the Novel:
The Bronze Bow proves that love, compassion and forgiveness are stronger than hatred, violence and revenge. Daniel is a young Jewish man living in first-century Galilee under Roman rule. After Roman violence destroys his family, he vows revenge and joins Rosh, an outlaw leader fighting for Jewish freedom. Along the way, Daniel meets Samson, a powerful man he frees from enslavement; Joel, a young man who shares his dream of freedom; Thacia, Joel’s brave and compassionate sister; and Jesus, a teacher who preaches love instead of hatred. As Daniel’s relationships grow, he begins to question his beliefs about revenge and freedom. Will he choose love or violence in his struggle against Rome?
