A Leper’s Tale: the story of Naaman

General Naaman was popular and successful as commander of Syria’s powerful army. His leadership abilities and military prowess had made him rich and his king famous beyond the country’s borders. Things couldn’t have been better if there would not have been another truth about his life that made all his achievements, status, and riches mean next to nothing! Naaman contracted leprosy, a deadly, and at the time incurable skin disease, which demanded that he lived his life in isolation. Just when he thought all was lost, a slave girl, who had been forcefully taken from her home and family, told her master’s wife that she wished Naaman could see a man of God in her country. He would know how to help him. A Leper’s Tale is an exciting adventure through the ancient lands of the Bible. It can also lead us on a journey of faith and hope for our time. Nothing is impossible for those who believe!
