Publisher Description
The world is spiraling toward destruction and one man receives a divine mandate.
Young Noah has found life good and wholesome, until he steps outside his village and discovers a world of temptation. Drawn by a beautiful woman yet repulsed by the pagan practices of her tribe's dark worship, his inner struggle keeps him in torment. Noah strains to hear the voice of God: through the warnings of a prophet, through the kind teachings of his grandfather Methuselah, through the loving concern of his family, and ultimately through personal confrontation. The message he receives is terrifying. Will he find the courage to obey?
Opposition intensifies to the call he has received, but a precious medallion handed down from ancient times reminds him who he is: a man with a heart of a lion.

"It is easy to read events in the Bible on autopilot. This book forced me to think how the great flood affected Noah and his family and what they must have gone through to be obedient to God in carrying out His orders. I thought it was very well written."
— Barbara (4 out of 5 stars)

" This was a well written fictional story, based on Noah's life from the Bible. It was a little long for my liking. It reminded me a bit of Francine Rivers books that were based on various Bible characters. "

" Noah in his younger days "
— Debbie, 5/24/2010 -
" loved the book from the standpoint that it made Noah real and how he really could have felt. He became human. It isn't meant to be exactly what happened but it does make you think. "
— Andrea, 7/24/2007 -
" This book was just not good. The writing was blah and the story was pretty lame. It was very very repetitive and I am surprised I finished it. What a waste of an audible credit... "
— Briann, 7/6/2006 -
" All of the Lions of Judah books are great! I've compared them with the Biblical accounts, and, he does a great job of helping you "picture" the life and times of these Biblical people. "
