Escape from Freedom

As a faithful Baptist woman, she wanted to please her family by becoming a preacher's wife. How could she have known that her God-fearing husband would fall into temptation and destroy their marriage? 1 Timothy 6:10 . . . "Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs" After suffering under her pious husband's dominance for over 18 years, Sara kidnaps her five children leaving behind a wealthy dynasty. This legally entangled mess harms everyone who wants the money. Some people go to jail. Some get divorced. Some lie and cheat, while others ask for absolution. The ramifications of the fall will cause pain and sorrow for generations. The desire to get more money becomes the root of all kinds of evil including murder, arson and insurance fraud. The author witnesses the self-destruction of a religious zealot, a devoted wife and a faithful Christian family. The desire for money, lots of money, ruins the lives of those that seek unjust rewards. Is wanting money, evil? On the other hand, is it the seed of the father that encourages his heirs to covet their inheritance, which is lost in the legal battles to keep their money? There are many stories that branch out from one woman's life. The seeds of the father (and mother) have affected so many lives in so many ways.
