My White Horse
HOW WOULD YOU PREPARE FOR THE LAST BATTLE, THE FINAL CLASH BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL? Since the unveiling battle six months ago, the mysteries of the cloud have continued to unfold for the family. But their most significant question of all has yet to be answered-the Rider's earthly identity. The revelation that he not only flew over the clouds but earth too, and that he had an earth-name he would reveal soon, has dominated their thinking since the time he appeared in Mark's hospital room after the unveiling battle. However, months have gone by and his identity remains a mystery. Discouragement has settled over the family, and even Jake, who refused to give up his search, is now losing hope. Bob's passing has come and gone, and the hope of uncovering the Rider's identity has faded as well. As complacency turned to curiosity in My White Horse and the Rider's Cloud, desperation turns to determination in My White Horse and the Rider's Unveiling as the family finds they cannot bury their desire to know the truth about the Rider. Who is he? What is his name? And how do they find him on earth? Answers unfold in this second book of the My White Horse series, and though they are not fully aware of it, the family's preparation for the last battle is in full swing. Rose Murdock was seventeen years old when she met the Lord while sitting at the kitchen table of a new friend and mentor who was twice her age. She would sit at this table every week for years to come and learn the Bible. For many years she wrote stories, skits, and object lessons to teach young people biblical truths. She learned to find a balanced mix of accuracy, simplicity, and fun. During this time Rose had two children of her own. Eventually, her husband Tim began pastoring, and she joined him in ministry. In 2021 Rose retired from a thirty-year career as a police and fire dispatcher during which time she had encountered a wide variety of life situations from critical to humorous. Today, Rose desires to see families strengthened. First through their personal relationships with the Lord, and then with each other. Visit her website at Bibleseed.org.
