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 woman’s story is a wrongdoing that I have intentionally determined to rectify in this book. Through the story of Hagar’s life, I have found inspiration for many of the characters in ‘A Great Nation.’
