Gene Edwards, author of The Tale of Three Kings wrote a shorter but equally potent book entitled, The Prisoner in the Third Cell.  The subtitle expresses the point of the book – “Will you follow a God who does not live up to your expectations?”  This very “quick read” is a highly engaging story of John the Baptist illustrating the faith-stretching experiences of many Christians whose prayers are answered very differently than expected.  The book is available at Amazon for under $10 and is well worth your investment.
