The Duel pierces through with conviction that leads to great joy as George E. Sargent reveals a deep and intimate knowledge of the Scriptures and human nature.

Written from the unusual viewpoint of the Bible personified, this story reveals spiritual tensions that occur in friendships, business interactions, and family relationships. Themes of honesty, forgiveness, vengeance, greed, lust, and salvation are developed, and in the end wisdom triumphs. Sargent unearths our secret struggles and hidden sins, powerfully weaving Scripture throughout to reveal how to avoid falling into despair, regret, and shame.

This story requires attentiveness, self-examination, and soul-searching. I found myself undone on many occasions, seeing myself on far too many pages. I’ve been admonished to live in the fear of God rather than the fear of man. So, my friends, if you are interested in a story that will challenge your manner of life and cause you to fall on your knees and beg God to change you, here it is.
