Where did the human race come from? Why do bad things happen to good people? Why are babies born sick, and why do so many hard-working people never seem to get ahead? If God is good, why doesn't He prevent sadness and heartbreak? And if He is all powerful, why doesn't He do something about evil and sickness? These questions and many more are answered in this remarkable book. Patriarchs and Prophets has brought peace and hope to millions throughout the world. This book covers the Old Testament from the story of creation through the life of David. A truly remarkable book!
