There was something strange about the man who was being attacked by the angry mob of villagers in the streets of Jerusalem that day. Timothy, an orphan living on the streets, couldn’t put his finger on it before he was whisked away by Rachael, a kind villager. Rachael and her husband Samuel offer Timothy and his little sister Sarah a place to live and earn their keep, teaching them to be thankful to God for all they have.

So begins the story of The Orphans, a new work of Christian fiction for both children and adults by author Lisa Kaye Presley. The story follows Timothy and Sarah as they adjust to life in their new religious home, learning about God and a mysterious man that Samuel calls “Master.” The the day arrives for the family to go and meet this “Master.” Timothy prepares for the long trip and uncovers his own joy and peace along the way.

The Orphans is now available in both paperback (ISBN: 9780983761006) and eBook (ISBN: 9780983761013) formats from Two Peas Publishing.
