  Zebedee's Calling brings 11th Century England to life, with key battles and royal successions, as well as the efforts among a group of zealous Christians to have access to Scripture written in English. Along with revelations about rulers, military tactics and the Church, there also are descriptions of Anglo-Saxon society and daily life. Although this story is historical fiction, it parallels our time. The accounts of Christian leaders and martyrs who strove to make the Bible accessible to the people draw attention to the immeasurable value of Scripture, and how blessed we are to possess it today. 
  About the Author: 
  Author Joel Francis was born into a God-loving, Bible-believing Christian family in India, and emigrated with his family to Canada when he was a young boy. Learning about the history of the Church and attending a Catholic high school inspired him to write his first book, Zebedee's Calling. Joel conveys the eternal truths he continues learning about God through his writing, and he wishes to serve and glorify Him in every sphere of life. Joel lives with his parents and brother. He graduated from the University of Toronto with majors in applied statistics and economics, and a minor in mathematics.

  The next day a new note is stuck to his mirror — “Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage.” 
  Each morning begins with anticipation as Andrew rushes to read the new note attached to his mirror. As the years pass, his perspective changes as he is reminded of his true identity as a child of God through these scriptural affirmations. 
  But who is leaving the notes? 
  Join Andrew as he uncovers the mystery and learns the meaning behind the notes he finds on his mirror. 
  With his faith as his guide, he discovers that the greatest strength lies not in the physical armor he wears but in the unwavering love of his heavenly Father.
