The Well Keeper's Daughter: A Novel of Faith, Family, and the Cost of Choosing

By William Don Morgan

In Roman-occupied Palestine, AD 80, Tamar, the daughter of a well keeper, grows up hearing the legend of a woman who met Jesus at Jacob's well. That story becomes the foundation of her faith, yet when the weight of occupation, rebellion, and persecution comes to Sychar, her family faces impossible choices.

Her husband, Ezra, struggles between providing for his family and following the Way. Her son, Micah, is drawn into the violent zealot movement. Her young daughter, Abigail, seeks the truth her mother holds dear. As Rome tightens its grip and Jewish zealots rise, Tamar and her household must choose whom to serve-a choice with life-and-death consequences.

"The Well Keeper's Daughter" is a historical novel of faith, family, and courage, weaving the legacy of Jacob's well, the living water of Christ, and the cost of discipleship into a narrative of suspense, heartbreak, and hope. Inspired by John 4, Joshua 24:15, and the turbulent history leading to Jerusalem's destruction, this story reveals that true faith transcends fear, violence, and even death, leaving a legacy that flows across generations.
