Crowdfund the Sequel to My Novel
Donation protected
Help crowdfund the sequel to my faith-based historical fiction novel, Kings of the Promised Land. For my first book, it took a total of six years from putting pen to paper until publication. I’m planning on a much shorter turnaround this time.
I am very excited about this project - the sequel is the book I always wanted to write, and the first was a necessary prologue (although a great story in and of itself). Although I have been able to raise money for charitable causes, it has been my overarching goal to get people interested in the biblical narratives - to let others experience the same page-turning intrigue that I do when I read 1 and 2 Samuel. My novels are gateway drugs to the Bible!
I wrote Kings of the Promised Land before obtaining a master’s level seminary degree. I believe that I have a much richer appreciation for and understanding of good scholarship, and hopefully my craft of writing has improved over the years. No matter what, I take the task of bringing readers into these stories very seriously. I aim to be as faithful as possible to the source material.

Praise for Kings of the Promised Land (Elk Lake Publishing)
“A fascinating depiction of Biblical Israel.”
“The way that Justin Gabriel describes the characters, the landscapes, the atmosphere … calls to mind the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien.”
“Beautifully written and one of the most faithful, true accounts of the biblical story of Israel’s first king, Saul, David and the prophet Samuel.”
“Makes the scarlet thread that weaves all scripture together come alive for me!”
“Challenges the reader to step into the reality of a story often received as an extraordinary legend.”
“I actually felt as if these events were unfolding right before me.”
“A masculine work of Biblical fiction.”
“You’ll be on the edge of your seat.”
“Anxiously awaiting the next book!”
