Have faith. When you have nothing else, have faith.

— Francine Rivers (b. 1947), Bestseller-Autorin christlicher Belletristik

Francine Rivers

Francine Rivers (* 1947) ist eine US-amerikanische Autorin, die seit den 1980er-Jahren das Genre der evangelikalen Belletristik maßgeblich prägt. Bekanntheit erlangte sie vor allem durch Werke wie „Redeeming Love“, in denen sie biblische Stoffe vor dem Hintergrund existenzieller Themen wie Missbrauch und Schuld verarbeitet, was in konservativen Kreisen wegen der teils expliziten Schilderungen auch diskutiert wird. Für Bibelleser veranschaulicht ihr Werk theologische Kernthemen wie göttliche Gnade, Treue und Vergebung anhand menschlicher Lebenskrisen.
