About the Book:
God tells the Sun to Shine is a short story about ambition, love, intrigue and forgiveness. The main character is the second-born of twin boys Esau and Jacob. Jacob struggles to come to terms with the privileges that the natural birth order accords the first-born twin Esau. He becomes so obsessed with the desire to become the alpha male in the family enterprise that he plots with their mum to upstage Esau. Although his plan succeeds, he is forced to flee the homeland after Esau plots to kill him in retaliation. For two decades, his life in exile is marked by turmoil in love, marriage and work. When a business arrangement goes pear shaped and he is faced with bankruptcy and the loss of his family, he decides instead to return to his country and face his nemesis - Esau. How will Jacob maneuvre his way through the ordeal?

Sounds like a great story! I'm visiting from the Booknificent Thursday Link-Up Party #90!
My favorite Christian sub-genre is Contemporary Fiction
I've always struggled to identify with Jacob so this would be a good read for me! Thanks for sharing this at Booknificent Thursday on Mommynificent.com this week!Tina
