I Am the Servant, I Am the Slave

Available for pre-order now!

When brothers Anan and Aziel are torn from their home by slave traders, their lives are thrust onto two very different—and equally dangerous—paths. As the eldest, Anan must summon courage he didn’t know he had to protect young Cassia and return her safely to her family. Aziel, still wrestling with the shadows of his past as the prodigal son, must confront the truth of who he is and the faith he longs to reclaim.

In I Am the Servant, I Am the Slave, the brothers discover what it truly means to follow the teachings of Jehovah God in a world ruled by Roman cruelty and political unrest. Even King Herod himself cannot escape the questions of power, greatness and the legacy he leaves behind.

The sequel to I Am the Prodigal, I Am the Eldest, this sweeping story brings two families together under God’s unseen direction. Sawatzky reveals how Jehovah weaves the lives of the proud and the humble, the noble and the broken, the curious and the cruel—each playing a part in His greater design. What appears to be chaos is, in truth, a masterpiece perfectly orchestrated.

From the selfish ambitions of men to the yearning for the promised Messiah—shadowed by the threat that seeks His life—Sawatzky delivers a powerful, moving narrative of divine purpose. Once again, she reminds us of the God we serve: the God of excellence, sovereignty, and extravagant love for all humanity.
