Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Kim has spent her whole life believing the walls of Jericho make her city safe. They are strong. Unconquerable. Permanent. But when rumors of Israel's God reach Jericho--and spies arrive in the night--everything Kim believes begins to change. Living with her aunt Rahab on the city wall, Kim watches fear grip her neighbors as the Israelites draw near. As the days pass and the strange army marches silently around the city, Kim is forced to confront questions no one in Jericho wants to ask: What if the stories about Israel's God are true? What if the walls she trusts can't protect her? And what if faith, not stone, is the strongest refuge of all? Told from the viewpoint of a young girl spared with Rahab's household, Kim and the Walls of Jericho brings the biblical account of Joshua 2-6 to life with vivid detail, emotional depth, and unwavering faithfulness to Scripture. Perfect for readers ages 9-14, this engaging historical novel invites them to see familiar Scripture in a new light and wrestle with timeless truths about courage, obedience, and faith.
