Martha and Mary

Lazarus's sisters.

One was stunning. The other stable.

One was scandalous. The other bitter.

One dangerous. The other no-nonsense.

But there were things they shared: a family cursed with dark secrets and betrayal. The desperate longing to be loved. The fear of change. The fear that things would remain the same.

Both shared a desperate need for a Savior.

In this brilliant retelling of an old story you'll find yourself in the middle of a household plagued with problems—yet privileged to know Jesus of Nazareth. Author Patty Froese Ntihemuka weaves together the story of a sister who is a reformed prostitute a sister hardened by ordinariness a brother touched by death a Pharisee uncle committed to maintaining appearances and a Redeemer who changes everything.
