From the moment an angel appears to the priest Zechariah in Jerusalem's Temple to announce that his wife Elizabeth would bear a son, this marks out John for a special purpose.

Through his childhood he is brought up studying the Hebrew scriptures and the prophets' words about God's chosen one, his cousin Jesus. On the banks of the river Jordan, his work begins preparing people's hearts and baptizing them with water.

How will the people respond to him? When will he meet his cousin and know if he was right about who Jesus is?

This is an epic story of great faith and a life dedicated to fulfil God's purpose.
Steve Eggleton first books for children were presented in the form of illuminated manuscripts. More recently, he has been writing for older children, re-telling the inspirational stories of God’s heroes of faith. He is the author of God and Noah Save the World, God and John Point the Way, and Brother Egbert's Christmas.
Steve has a passion to share his Christian faith with children and young people.

'Steve Eggleton helps children understand the mission of John the Baptist by contextualizing his life, soaking it in scripture, and adding depth. A fantastic read.'

- Debbie Duncan, author, nurse, teacher

'Steve Eggleton invites the reader into the narrative; his effective use of scripture makes clear the significance of John's life in God's Big Story.'

- Bob Hartman, author and performance storyteller
