My newsletter readers will have already seen this (so sign up if you want early access to news, contests, etc.). I have recently signed an option agreement with Fear Not Productions for the purpose of seeing this book made into a film or TV series!
The Prophetess, Deborah’s Story, is Book 2 in the Daughters of the Promised Land series. (The picture below is of me holding the book before it released in 2016.)
You can find the biblical account in Judges 4-5. If you haven’t read the book and want to, you can find it at any online bookstores. I have links to these on my books page here.
Of course, the process of making a book into a movie or television series is normally a long one, and not every book that is acquired by a studio actually makes it as far as the screen. A lot of work goes into the production of a film or television series that remains behind the scenes. This is one of the first steps, but it’s definitely exciting!
I’ve had the privilege of meeting the producer of Fear Not Productions over Zoom and email, and am super excited to be able to work with her. I don’t know what God has in store for this book, but it is an honor to have someone interested in pursuing this next step.
Please pray with me that whatever happens, God will use my take on Deborah’s story, and more importantly her story as is recorded in Scripture, to encourage and draw people to Himself. That is the passion of my work.
In His Grace,
~Jill

Love all your books! Just this year I’ve read Daughter of Eden, Ruths story, Hannahs story, Star of Persia, Crimson cord & Deborahs story.!! Best of Luck on the movie. I’ve told my husband so many times I wish they’d make movies out of the good christian fiction books I read!!
Hi Mrs. Jill Eileen!
I absolutely love your work and have read each book of David’s wives written by you: Bathsheeba, Abigail, and Michal in which Abigail is my favorite 😇 I just wanted to say thanks for your inspiration. I just released my 1st e-book on Amazon and writers like yourself have truly paid a part. Thanks so much and congrats on that option agreement!
Wonderful!!! I have often wished that someone would make movies of your books. I pray they make this movie as well as you wrote the book. He may not come when you want him……………
