Peggy Miracle Consolver Author

Peggy Miracle Consolver graduated with honors from Southwestern Oklahoma State University in 1968. She had three semesters of course work toward lay counselling in her church from Dallas Theological Seminary in the 1990s before her mother became ill. Her experiences of farming and life with three brothers/two sisters in a family with the motto of make do with what you have, gave authenticity and insight to the story and characters of the Late Bronze Age. Having taught Sunday School for thirty-seven years and reading through the Bible annually using Dr. Charles Ryrie's chronological reading plan for fourteen years, the Author gathered insights about the Gibeonites of Joshua 9 and 10 from Genesis 9 to Psalm 114. Among her extra-biblical research, the author felt compelled to experience the setting by joining an archaeological dig and visiting Gibeon in the Palestinian West Bank—an adventure in itself!
