Adversary

How do we explain to a child why a loving God allows bad things to happen to good people? How can a child make sense of a world permeated by evil and a loving all-powerful Creator? Adversary, a Christian illustrated novel, addresses these questions by helping children of all ages better understand the struggle between good and evil. The major events of the Old and New Testaments are told by Obsessious, a small, black, adolescent spirit who is ostracized by most of the other angels in heaven. Obsessious is drawn to Lucifer, God's prince on earth, who pays attention to the lonely angel by assigning him menial tasks. When Lucifer tries to overthrow God, he and those who stand with him are banished to a dark and ruined earth before Adam and Eve. Readers struggling with trying to understand their own 'dark' sides will find a sympathetic character in Obsessious, who slowly regrets the bad decision he made to follow Lucifer, and finds his own redemption.
