The Long Way Home: Maranatha

By: Nichols, Tanya L.

For nearly twenty years, I have chased the actual breath of God.

Not through seminary or formal training - through grit, obsession, and a fierce refusal to let someone else tell me what God said. When He warned us not to add or take away from His word, I took that seriously. So I went back to where His words first lived - Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic - and what I found there stopped me cold. Depth that a translated Bible simply cannot carry. Meaning layered into every character, every root, every breath of the original text.

I am not a scholar. I am someone who could not stop asking.

The Long Way Home - Maranatha picks up where The Thread That Runs Through Everything left off.

Book 1 built the foundation. This book invites you into the story - true, and deeply relatable - through the very books of the Bible that confuse people the most. The ones that have carried, unfairly, a reputation for fear and judgment.

In a world where everything is rapidly changing and fear has become mainstream, I invite you to meet the God who says "Do not fear" - over and over again, in every language, across every page. Not the God of wrath that many have been handed. Not the God of the intimidating text. The God who is, from the first word to the last, nothing but love - quietly, persistently guiding the homesick back Home.

Home is calling. God began building it from the very beginning - and He is coming to fulfill what He started from His first breath.
