The atonement childShe was raped but the baby that now grows in her, he is innocent so what to do next?Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine. Exodus 13:2First Sentence: It was on a cold January night when the unthinkable, unpardonable happened.I think the first time I read this book I was to young to fully comprehend the emotional carnage that this book brings. I had to take breaks, put the book down and read something else, or just not read for a few days.Some times it's so hard to follow God's word, to
Excellent book! My first Francine Rivers & certainly not my last. This touched my heart in so many ways. I loved it.
The story of a protected, adored virgin being brutally raped and dealing with a resulting pregnancy could not have been an easy story to write. The author did a good job of creating a believable Christian family in crises by allowing us inside their deepest thoughts thereby revealing weakness, doubt, fear, and anger woven with faith, redemption, and hope. The Atonement Child was an interesting mixture of thoroughly developed characters undergoing intense trauma mixed with a few secondary players
In reality, I would have agreed that Dynah take the morning after pill in order not to get pregnant after she was raped. Even when she got pregnant, her boyfriend (trained to be a pastor) and all her Christian College dean and professors, parents and friends wanted her to have an abortion saying that God will understand. Dynah made the decision to listen instead to her heart and her heart said that killing the baby is not right. It also broke my heart to read that she was shunned by the College
WOW! What a powerful message, God has used Francine Rivers. He breathed life into this book, wow I just cannot explain how helpful this book was. God has ordained you, unto all nations.This book is the perfect example of why you should never have an abortion, no matter the situation. 20 year old Dynah Carey was raped in a park on her way home, she found out she was pregnant, She didn't want the baby, because it was conceived in rape. Her boyfriend, or should I say ex started to mentally abuse
