A Great Nation

Of all the women in the Bible, Hagar is my favorite one. Her

story is found in Genesis 16. Most of us know little about this

woman and the role she played, although countless sermons

have been delivered about Abraham and Sarah. I believe the

repression of this womans story is a wrongdoing that I have

intentionally determined to rectify in this book. Through the

story of Hagars life, I have found inspiration for many of

the characters in A Great Nation.
