That family, like ours today, has its share of hardships, moral failings, betrayals—and dramatic transformations. In Salvation Stories: Family, Failure, and God’s Saving Work in Scripture, author Ryan Budd explores the profound humanity of Old Testament figures like Abraham, Jacob, Tobit, Judith, and more and shows how God made his merciful love evident in their sufferings and joy. What Salvation Stories reveals that the families in Scripture experienced all that we do. And just as God shaped their stories for his glory and their good, he does so for each of us.
