Lineage of Grace by Francine Rivers

A Lineage of Grace by Francine Rivers – Five Powerful Stories of Unlikely Women Who Changed Eternity

Discover the unforgettable stories of five extraordinary women in the family tree of Jesus Christ in A Lineage of Grace, the complete bestselling biblical historical fiction collection by New York Times bestselling author Francine Rivers (author of Redeeming Love).

In one volume, Rivers brings to life Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary—women who faced extraordinary, even scandalous, challenges. Each took great personal risk, lived with courage, made mistakes, and yet was chosen by God to play a vital role in the lineage of the Savior of the world. Their stories of hope, faith, love, grace, and obedience still speak powerfully today.

What’s Inside This Bestselling Collection

• Unveiled: Tamar – A woman of hope who risked everything for justice and her place in God’s plan.
• Unashamed: Rahab – A woman of faith whose past could not stop God from giving her a future.
• Unshaken: Ruth – A woman of love and loyalty who found redemption and a second chance.
• Unspoken: Bathsheba – A woman who experienced deep brokenness and received unlimited grace and restoration.
• Unafraid: Mary – A woman of quiet obedience whose “yes” to God changed history forever.

Each novella stays rooted in the biblical account while filling in the emotional, cultural, and personal details that make these ancient women feel real and relatable. Rivers’ signature storytelling turns familiar Scripture passages into gripping, heartfelt narratives of struggle, courage, and divine purpose.
