"The story of Hosea has long fascinated students and scholars alike. Yet, the story is simple and speaks to the very heart of following Christ closely and faithfully, regardless of the difficulties that may come. Thankfully, Emily Boyd makes Hosea both accessible and profitable in this well-written volume. As a preacher, I deeply respect those who can take an ancient biblical story and bring it into our time without losing the original meaning. Emily Boyd has done that, and you’ll benefit greatly from her effort."
- Dr. David W. Hegg, Lead Pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Santa Clarita, CA and author of The Obedience Option, Refuge Marriage, The Well, and When My Heart Is Faint
"In Always Faithful, Emily Boyd helps young readers see the story beneath the story—God’s costly compassion for His wayward people and His relentless pursuit of His bride. Emily handles Hosea’s often difficult subject matter with wisdom, pointing out the heinousness of sin without dwelling on potentially inappropriate details. Again and again, she shows us how the story of Hosea fits into the whole story of Scripture and finds its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus. If you and your child need a reminder of God’s astonishing mercy and unconditional love, I recommend this book!"
- Caroline Cobb, singer, songwriter, and author of Advent for Exiles
"Beautiful, engaging, and Christ-centered. Not only will kids gain insight into the Book of Hosea and its relevant biblical themes through Always Faithful, but parents will, too. What a wonderful way to refresh the souls of your family with the gospel truth."
- Gloria Furman, author of Missional Motherhood and Labor with Hope
