Vivid and well-researched, For This Very Purpose lets readers see and feel the plagues as never before.


Author E.J. Ashmore plunges readers into the harsh realities of Hebrew slavery—and the chaos that erupts when Moses appears, proclaiming that God will set His people free. Through the eyes of sixteen-year-old Hebrew slave Eliza and her master’s eighteen-year-old son, Seti, we witness the plagues unfold in vivid, unforgettable detail.


We’ve all heard of the plague of frogs, but have you ever imagined what it really looked like? Smelled like? Ashmore’s rich storytelling and meticulous research into ancient Egyptian culture and religion make this biblical era come alive.


As miracles unfold and gods are challenged, one question lingers: will Seti abandon the idols of Egypt to follow the God of Israel?


For This Very Purpose is available on Amazon.


Blessings,
