Lasting Legacy

Faith Finders #6

by Jenifer Jennings

Will Lea’s love for Timothy endure the trials of separation and growing opposition?

Lea longs for a simple married life like her older sisters enjoy. But when Timothy, her betrothed, leaves on yet another missionary journey with his mentor Paul, Lea becomes uncertain of when—or if—he will return to marry her.

If he does return, will she have the strength to support him, knowing that they may have to spend their life apart for the sake of the gospel? With Roman persecution growing and her family pressuring her to abandon her faith, Lea faces an impossible choice.

Will she stand firm in her newfound faith or yield to the mounting opposition?

Discover Lea’s story of love and sacrifice in Lasting Legacy, Book 6 of the Faith Finders series.

A historically rich account of Lea's journey as a Jew finding the Way. I love the way the history of the time period really helps show a reader how things worked in society. Lea's journey as she grows in maturity and knowledge was heartwarming. I truly enjoyed this fictionalized Bible story. I do recommend this book and the others in this series for any and all that love a well-put-together tale of the times and people we know and love.

I enjoyed this final installment of the Faith Finders series. This is Lea's story. She is the wife of Timothy, a contemporary of the Apostle Paul. Lea is born a Jew but finds The Way, a new religious movement that ia rapidly growing and causing some concern for certain local citizens. Despite her family's strong Jewish roots, Lea finds herself drawn to these new teachings and also finds herself falling in love with one of the young teachers. This book is excellently written and brings to life some of Christianity's earliest members. Join Paul, Timothy, Lea, Aquilla and Priscilla as they seek to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ!

This was the last book in the faith Finders series and I enjoyed it. We don't know if Timothy had a wife but we get to learn at Lea, a possible wife in this story. The hardships and trials of the early church were very well written.

An interesting story about Lea, the youngest of a Rabbi's four daughters, and her conversion to the "Way". The book presents Paul in all his "verboseness" with several of his followers during the time from his conversion to his ultimate death. The author presents several of Paul's followers, but this particular story concentrates on Timothy and Lea. A well written story that follows close to actual facts as we know them, but it does also present the thoughts of a wife who believes in Jesus and also believes that she is being called to this ministry. An interesting and insightful read.
I did receive an ARC copy of this book. This is my voluntary, honest and completely personal review.

Jenifer Jennings makes Bible stories come to life. This is the story of Lea who has to make the journey from Judaism to following Christ as a wife to Timothy and follower of Paul. Lea, Paul, Timothy and others become people with whom you can identify, not just characters from history. I have never failed to be moved by one of her books. I highly recommend this book.

I have just read this book and giving my honest review.
The author I am glad I found and I have read a few of her books are amazing.
They come to life and you follow in the foot steps of each
character.
The Bible comes to life and is told beautifully.
You have to read the book, the adventure, sad and wonderful.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.

Lasting Legacy (Faith Finders Book 6), my sixth read from Christian author Jenifer Jennings. A well-written fictionalized expansion of the Biblical tale of Paul, Timothy & Lea told from Lea's perspective. I’ll definitely be reading more by this author! (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

This is a fantastically beautifully written series by Ms Jennings. I have read them all and they are so enjoyable. They are about strong women of faith and how they persevered even though they are tested severely. Cant wait for her next installment!
