Bestselling Author Lynn Austin Launches New Biblical Saga
After years of watching his children and grandchildren wander from their faith, Iddo's prayers are answered: King Cyrus is allowing God's chosen people to return to Jerusalem. Jubilant, he joyfully prepares for their departure, only to learn that his family, grown comfortable in the pagan culture of Babylon, wants to remain.
Zechariah, Iddo's oldest grandson, feels torn between his grandfather's ancient beliefs and the comfort and success his father enjoys in Babylon. But he soon begins to hear the voice of God, encouraging him to return to the land given to his forefathers.
Bringing to life the biblical books of Ezra and Nehemiah, Return to Me tells the compelling story of Iddo and Zechariah, the women who love them, and the faithful followers who struggle to rebuild their lives in obedience to the God who beckons them home.

The words to describe this book are too deep to express for me but, it helped me receive a Revelation of the CROSS our Savior bore for our sake! I really praise and thank God for authors like you Lynne. It's so better to read things pertaining to God's word a than anything else!

It wasn't all that good Biblically. And I did not appreciate 75% of it talking about the moon god. I got tired of it I would not recommend. I'm very sorry that I even started reading that book

Austin does it again! She brings to life the Biblical characters and makes the tales of our Christian heritage easily understood. Her writing style helps these vital lessons take root in our hearts and impact our view of our nation and world today. Thank you and may God bless your work Ms. Austin.
