About this audiobook
One man holds the key to locating the Ark of the Covenant - but he's hidden deep in the desert and no one has seen him since he was a boy.
In this explosive sequel to Blessed Child, Jewish soldier-turned-archaeologist Rebecca Soloman leads a team deep into the Ethiopian desert to find the one man who may know the final resting place of the Ark of the Covenant. Such a discovery would bring hope back to her people. Her search brings excitement and danger - including unexpected love and a discovery far more powerful than even the holy artifact.
Meanwhile, Islamic fundamentalists dispatch Ismael, their most accomplished assassin, to pursue Rebecca and the man she's searching for. These men fear that the Ark's discovery will compel Israel to rebuild Solomon's temple - on the very site of their holy mosque in Jerusalem. But the man they seek is no ordinary man.
His name is Caleb, and he too is on a mission - to find again the love he embraced as a child and to share that love with the world.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Bruins team book. Love the history built into the reading.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Ted Dekker provides one of his better writing efforts to marry a great plot line with the unflinching truth and revelation of the Messiah and what it is like to live by faith (thank you Bill Bright for your theological stalwartness). A well written read (or listen if you get the audiobook) that keeps you turning the page all the way to the end.
I loved this book. It is an unapologetic proclamation of the Good News - the Gospel that Jesus is the Messiah. It is earth shattering revelation.
On top of that, it is a challenge to everyone who calls themselves “Christian” to evaluate their own faith and their walk with the Messiah. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It was a decent story but it abruptly ended before it was finished.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5In this sequel to A Child Called Blessed, the child is grown up now and living in the Ethopian desert with his parents and a bunch of monks. It would seem he's destined to live out his life in obscurity, but an Israeli group discovers that the place where he is living may be the secret hiding place of the Ark of the Covenant! So then of course there is an expedition that sets out to recover the ark, with a group of Arab militants right on their heels. Will the ark be restored to Israel, or will it be destroyed, or does it really matter?Along with the typical thrill of seeing the Arabs and Israeli's duke it out, there is some mystical type stufff thrown in when Caleb rediscovers his connection to God that he had when he was a child. Some of the stunts he pulls are very much like the stuff in Dekker's Circle trilogy. It serves to illustrate his point, which is what could really happen if someone totally trusted God? And of course, it's also intriguing to see the political fallout from Israel discovering the Ark of the Covenant. I don't know that he got that quite right, it's a little simplistic but still realistic enough to give a good read. Fans of Dekker's type of suspense with the mystical elements he throws in and the spiritual lessons should definitely check out this older book of his.
