Overview

Seventeen-year-old Joan of Arc remains the youngest supreme military commander in history and the most attested person up to the sixteenth century. Her story attracts Catholics, Protestants, and nonbelievers alike.

Joan's interactions with God's messengers, fulfilled prophesies, humble spirit, bold actions, love of God, and prayer-centered life are all consistent with those of the great prophets and saints of the Bible. People have wrestled with the supernatural aspects of her case for centuries. But in a time of increasing New Age spirituality, Joan of Arc makes a powerful witness for the triune God of the Bible. Although much has been written about her, no scripturally based examination of her case has yet been recorded.

In Joan of Arc and the God of the Bible, author Chris Snidow studies the many parallels between Joan and the saints and prophets of the Bible, providing undeniably consistent similarities between these powerful witnesses for God.

"I was impressed and intrigued with his unique perspective as he carefully explained the many similarities between Joan and the Prophets of the Bible.his writing style is easy to read, very interesting, and informative. I highly recommend this book."

-Virginia Frohlick, president of the Joan of Arc Center, Albuquerque, New Mexico
