A Star out of Jacob - Paperback
by Martha Carver Harris (Author)
Faye is an overweight Sunday school teacher of Persian extraction with a dog walking business and no self-esteem. Mysterious dreams play on her ancestral links to the Parthian Empire and an elite priestly class known as the magi. Faye is, in fact, a link to the ancient group of men who followed the Star to Bethlehem. But she ignores that and doggedly pursues modern-day progressive causes like animal rights and climate change. Quite by accident she meets Sebastian, an intelligent and irresistible Jew who, like Faye, has a serious side. Together they explore the scientific underpinnings of Intelligent Design, ancient astrology, apocalyptic theories, and the Big Bang. A romance develops. But a fatal disease leads Faye to abandon Sebastian and discover the full story of her Parthian forebears. Heavenly personages explain her mystic connection to a child who traveled with the Wise Men. Through them, she discovers the startling synchrony between movements of the cosmos and the Truth revealed in Bethlehem.
