Nine familiar stories. Seven men. Two women. All of them
chosen and led by God down paths they never intended to take. No matter how
deeply they held their faith, when they found themselves confronted by
circumstances of life and the call of the Father, they faced the critical

who walked with God. Passionate. Pious. Perfect. People who never wavered in
faith, who never doubted God's purpose. God could use people like that. "Build
a boat, Noah." Noah steadfastly built a boat. No questions. No hesitation.
"Sacrifice your son, Abraham." Abraham blindly obeyed. No confusion.
No anger. Every cherished children's story of the Old Testament depicts these
