FREE kingdom adventure fiction novel ~ Kaelan and Carita learn the true importance and place of prayer in their quest to save the world.
One passionate man against a debauched land. One divinely-called woman against a terrified heart. Saving the world isn’t what they imagined.
He promised to save the land. She received a divine calling. How can mere prayer quench his restlessness and her fears?
Walking behind a plow day in and day out gets boring for a nineteen-year-old who longs for nothing more than adventure. In the midst of the rampant lawlessness and love of pleasure that drive their country, Kaelan Ellith yearns to make a difference. When a promise at his mother’s deathbed gives him the impetus to do just that, he’s off to the capital city to bring back the knowledge of Adon Olam. Despite his natural leadership skills, his schemes keep going awry, and lost people keep passing into eternity without hope. How can he ever keep such an impossible promise?
Shy Carita Kostan knows the voice of Adon Olam, and she desires nothing more than to follow His calling: “Love. Serve. Pray. Persevere.” Yet how can she minister His love to her neighbors when her soul is tormented by their unmet needs andhandicapped by her own paralyzing fears?
When the true nature of his promise and her call begin to surface, Kaelan and Carita just might discover how saving the world is entirely different than they imagined . . . if they have the humility and the courage to receive it.

Quotes
“Prayer moves the world,” Ellrick added. “Prayer turns the schemes and purposes of men upside down.”
“You do need prayer, more than you know,” Carita said softly. “Prayer is the keynote. Prayer isn’t the preparation to accomplish the purposes of Adon Olam. It is the accomplishment of His purposes. Great works are done through prayer.”
About Truth From Taerna
