The Time of Jacob's Trouble Trilogy

The tides of war are once again rising against the nation of Israel. Her old alliances are unraveling, while new alliances against her are rising.

Rocket attacks on Haifa and Sderot are increasing, and Israel cautiously prepares a response to a conflict that many fear will never end. Rumors are even circulating that several nuclear warheads have slipped through the Israeli blockade into Gaza.

And then a decision is made that will change the fate of the Middle East – and the world – forever.

Follow the exciting saga of the End Times with the Rosenberg family as they struggle to adapt and survive in a world quickly being altered by war, fear, and extraterrestrial encounters.

Will they be able to discern the truth of the times before it's too late?

I wrote my first book called "Project Exodus" in the fall of 1992 when I started college, but soon became busy with school, career, family, and kids. I didn't start writing again until about 2007 and ended up publishing my first novel ("The Time of Jacob's Trouble") in 2008 which was later expanded into a well-loved trilogy. And the rest (as they say) is history!

Aside from writing software and books in my spare time, my other interests include spending time with my wife and our dogs, hiking, relaxing on the beach, and reading great literature. I've toured Israel several times and have also volunteered on an IDF medical base. I also enjoy traveling, listening to classical music, studying archaeology, history, and politics, and literally devouring audiobooks.

Also publishes under C.W. Hambleton

great books

I really enjoyed all three and the author follows scripture in telling the story. I did think the first book went into too much detail at times but still told a great story and set up the next two books. Well worth your time and money.

Bold ending

Great Series. I respect the author for having the guts to send one of the main characters to hell for taking the Mark. I was expecting some sugar coated happy ending. Many Christians are denial about the reality of hell. They are expecting the Hollywood hippie version of Jesus , the coming King and judge. This book really showed what the consequences for denying Christ and following the beast will be like.

Loved this book!


This was an original and thoughtful look at the End Times. I liked it because it provided a look that I had never taken clear through.

Even if you read the original books, this trilogy, re-written years later, is much more complete.
