THE PROMISE OF THE STAR: A Novel of Healing Presence

THE PROMISE OF THE STAR BY DR. STEPHEN PHIFER Based upon the scriptural record, the biblical characters come to life in this highly original telling of the Nativity story. The story is told on three levels. The first is the human level. We follow Mary and Joseph, a trio of shepherds, another trio of rulers from a faraway land, a faithful pair of elderly saints living in the Temple courts, and a frustrated innkeeper in Bethlehem. The second level is angelic. The Star of Bethlehem is not a celestial body; she is a guiding angel named Starr. She is assisted by the angel Gabriel in a series of clever disguises. The third level is the divine, for God Himself is the power behind the miracles as the plan of salvation—the incarnation!—unfolds, and the healing power from heaven begins to flow. It continues to this day, for the touch of the Lord Jesus is a healing touch for each of us.
