I write about what matters...to you---
women, wives and moms---
about your family, faith and future.
I write about what's hard, what helps and what heals.
I show you how it's done. And not done.
I hold your hand as you find what matters to the Savior.
And let go of those things that mattered to you, but not to Him.
I write about what matters...to Him.
Sonya Contreras
The Time: 2408-2403 BC
The Place: The Promised Land
Entering the land is more than just possession.
I Am with You
brings Israel into their Promised Land.
Hear God’s directions.
Follow His instructions.
Perform God’s judgment.
Know God’s goodness
Feel His peace.
I Am with You reassures His people
Of His presence with them
In spite of overwhelming evil.
Read it to rest in Him.
The Israelites enter the land, eat its fruit, and want to rest. But first, they must remove the evil. They find the inhabitants know nothing of God, let alone acknowledge His control.
In the midst of evil, God is with them.
But they must finish the battles
before they can arrive at His rest.
Author of Biblical fiction, married to my best friend, and challenged by eight sons’ growing pains as I write about what matters.

Wow! So glad to see Book 3 of this series out now. The Israelites have made it through the wilderness and miraculously cross the Jordan River, defeat Jericho, face challenges at Ai, and run into lots of learning opportunities. And the heroes of this one, besides Joshua, are Salmon and Rahab.
I think what I really like most about Sonya's books is that they portrays these (in my mind) archaic, dusty Bible people with real-life personalities and problems against a backdrop of God's revealed Truth. These people come alive, and I start walking in their shoes. Her Bible fiction, as well as her other articles and booklets, are excellent material for a young adult audience.
