Overview
The Quest, book two in author Nancy Moser's Mustard Seed series, is the continuing story of four ordinary people whose lives are forever changed after they are invited to the very supernatural town of Haven, Nebraska. The paths of Natalie, Walter, Kathy, Del, and Julia are once again joined in a quest of faith — and a battle against the forces determined to stop them — as they implement the decisions and direction they received in The Invitation and discover the meaning of Matthew 7:7: "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." When the heat's turned up and the enemy unleashes his greatest opposition, the Havenites learn that it's not enough to know what's right — one must, with God's help, do what's right. No matter what the cost.
Synopsis
From the Author
C.S. Lewis said, "There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them." I never thought much about evil forces in the world. I knew people did bad things, but I never attributed it to anything beyond their own bad choices. This is the great lie that delights Satan. I can imagine him raising an eyebrow and giving a sarcastic laugh: "If you don't believe in me, then I must not exist, do I?" In spiritual matters, ignorance is not bliss. Although Satan uses people who are open to his corrupting suggestions, he is even more interested in "good" people. For we are working against him and putting our faith in his enemy, the Almighty God. That's what The Quest is about-good people trying to do their best but encountering evil opposition. Yet it is not a book about evil or defeat, but a book about faith, hope, perseverance, and victory as God's power is triumphant. Spiritual warfare is real-whether we want to admit it or not. Yet the outcome is certain if we point our hearts in the right direction. Only then will good-and God-prevail.
