Calebs Mountain - Paperback

by Alton Lynn Cooper (Author)

Caleb's heart continues to burn with God's promise to give him a mountain home in the land of Canaan. He works the family farm in his small village while dreaming of one day going to war and claiming the land awaiting him. His wife and her family do all they can to dissuade him from leaving the village and reentering the war, risking his life and those around him. There are many in his village telling him he is a foolish old man pursuing what they believe is a suicide mission sure to destroy himself and those who join with him. Caleb forms a small group and travels to the mountain to spy out the land and prepare for war. A traitor from one of the cities on the mountain learns of Caleb's plans and sets out to inform the murderous leader in Debir of his activities. Joshua joins in with Caleb, and the two of them wage one last war, driving out the wickedness that destroyed the lives of many living in Hebron and Debir.

The reader is carried along through the intense battles on the mountain, costing many their lives, and is blessed in the end, realizing God's promises to His children never fail. He goes before them in war, leading them to victory as they face insurmountable odds, trusting in the power of God to protect and see them through.

Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
