Rescued From Egypt (A. L. O. E.)
$23.50In this book (3rd volume in the Pictures of Faith Series), the life and deliverance of Moses as a type and shadow of our coming Redeemer, Jesus Christ, is flawlessly incorporated into the story of Arthur, the main character of this book.
Arthur wrestles with the inner conflict of living for himself and the approval of others or living for Christ in spite of the rejection and ridicule he’ll most likely endure, for he is related to his siblings by blood, but not by the blood of Christ. The characters are realistic and the story is captivating, but the best part is the dramatic, awesome ending!

Charlotte Maria Tucker (1821 – 1893) was a prolific writer and poet for children and adults, who preferred to write under the pseudonym A. L. O. E. (a Lady of England).
Word has spread that Paul’s teachings have persuaded some of the elite Roman Guard to believe in the one true God, Jesus Christ. If they walk in the light of the truth, their wealth and property will be forfeited; more importantly, believers who reveal their faith risk not only their lives, but place their spouse and children in harm’s way.
Will a Roman soldier forsake all and take up his cross and follow Jesus? Be prepared to be on the edge of your seat as slaves and generals find themselves on equal footing, hiking treacherous mountain paths in the midst of a catastrophic flood. Salvation may be found in a most unexpected way!
