This book is an incredible tool for all those who want to basis of the existence of God. Atheists often have more information than one who claims to believe in God, but this book provides the necessary knowledge to learn about this topic.
"Stealing from God" explains how atheists need God to prove its nonexistence. However, if they profess not believe in Him, how can they need God to base their claims?
In the eight chapters of this book, we learn about Causality, Reason, Information and intention, Morality, Evil, Science, The four points of the case for "Mere Christianity" (based on the book by CS Lewis) and in conclusion, the freedom that He gives us and how God will not force you into heaven against your will.
The language of this book is easy and understandable, so one need not be a scholar on the subject to understand what is written here. Furthermore, it is agile and enjoyable because there are not only concepts and arguments, it also explains with practical examples and anecdotes that illustrate these truths.
If you're looking for a book to help you support your faith in God and also help you get answers to questions of atheists, you must read this book.

Unlike many common romantic books where there is instant love, in this story, the romance is developing slowly.
On the one hand, we have Margaretha, who tend to talk too much and her words seem to never end… but she is much more than she appears.
Colin is also an adventurer at heart, lover of danger and adrenaline filled, but he feels hurt and guilty for what his ferocity and rebellious has caused.
Both are characters with whom one becomes fond. Despite being completely different -and they can’t understand because Margaretha speaks German, and Colin, English- they have chemistry and complement each other perfectly. There is a villain which they must face and for which they need to join forces.
I must admit -even though I’m not into the romance stuff- this story had captivated me completely and I could hardly wait to continue reading. Although this story is set in the year 1413, the author knows masterfully paint the atmosphere and you feel like you're really there, living adventures with the characters. The descriptions are very rich and make the story feel very real.
This book has a good plot, great story, characters that make you love them, suspense, romance and love for God. These entire ingredients make this novel captivating and fast-paced.

I didn’t know that this book was the second of a trilogy, so at first I found it very difficult to follow because the story continues its course from the first book. However, the protagonist and narrator, Ginger, makes you feel comfortable when you’re reading her story, because besides being sincere and honest, she knows how to keep you hooked in history.
At twelve, Ginger has suffered teasing and bullying from their peers at school and she doesn’t know how to handle this situation; so his story might seem familiar for everybody.
Sometimes we see bullying distantly and believe that the solution is to require the victim to report any harassment suffered, however we don’t know what is happening inside their minds and what their afflictions are. Ginger's story shows us that side of bullying don’t see and that may have the key to understanding these situations.
I recommend this book to all those that are relate to teens or preteens, ie everyone. This novel brings a new perspective on a delicate issue; and especially now that society moves around social networking, is good to have biblical tools to help us deal with these situations.

Esther (aka Hadassah) is one of my favorite female characters of the Bible. Her story has some resemblance to Cinderella, although it's clear that the diference is that Esther really existed; and what we can deduce is that she was a woman of character, strength and courage.
Angela Hunt has done a wonderful job with the research for this book. The descriptions are so detailed, you can relive the atmosphere in which this story unfolds. In addition, it explains the historical and cultural context in which Hadassah grew, which gives us a complete picture of the time.
The customs and traditions explained in the book help us understand the significance of many acts of the characters, providing greater understanding of their reactions.
The novel is told from the point of view of Hadassah and Harbonah, a eunuch who was under the command of King Xerxes. Both have their adventures and experiences from two opposite sides of life in Susa; and together create a story that perfectly complements.
As in the Bible, this book has drama, romance, intrigue and suspense, so no need to recommend it, because this is a materpiece.
I know the author will write more books about women in the Bible, so I look forward to reading her others work.

Alana Terry has the ability to leave me speechless. She can create real and vivid situations that when you read her books, they make you ask: Is this really fiction?
All of her novels are full of love and passion for God but also shows the real side of human beings and their conflicts when we go through difficult times.
Hannah at first I felt that she was weak and helpless. As if at any time she could give up her faith. But when the story was developing Hannah begins to mature and become a strong and confident woman, with strong convictions.
In the company of Simon, Hannah must fulfill the mission of sharing their faith with others, knowing that they can fall into the hands of the authorities and die for their faith.
But in all these situations, the hand of God is present and we can read how He moves everything that happens to provided care for His children.
This is a powerful and deep novel and a masterfully written stor. I hope that Alana Terry continue writing books that reach the heart, like this one.
