The Providence

Quinlan Motley is a Sunday School Teacher, Food Bank Volunteer, GoodNovels.org Author, and Entrepreneur whose writing reflects a life shaped by faith, service, and responsibility. He is also a Retired U.S. Army Captain and Combat Veteran whose Military Service included Deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. A Husband and Father, he brings questions of care, provision, generosity, and trust to his work.

A boy in Jericho dreams of a life where his family will never go hungry. As he earns trust, builds prosperity and brings people together, his promise to protect them becomes a responsibility he cannot put down. The Providence imagines the life of the Young Rich Ruler through love, ambition and the search for enough. Inspired by the biblical Young Rich Ruler, The Providence imagines the life surrounding his encounter with Jesus. This is a novel, not a documented biography: a story of ambition, generosity, love and difficult choices in which prosperity leaves the deepest questions unanswered.

Before he became the Young Rich Ruler, he was a boy who wanted more for his family and the people he loved.

Growing up with hunger in Jericho, he is determined to build a different life. Through honest work, sharp instincts and an ability to bring people together, he earns something as valuable as money: their trust. Trade opens doors. Relationships deepen. Prosperity gives him the means to feed households, offer work and shelter the people who depend on him.

With every success, his responsibilities grow. He believes that enough money, secure foundations and the right relationships can keep his family safe. But each person he helps gives him more to lose. When does caring for others become a need to control every danger? And what happens when the life he has built cannot quiet the fear beneath it?

Inspired by the biblical Young Rich Ruler, The Providence imagines the life surrounding his encounter with Jesus. This is a novel, not a documented biography: a story of ambition, generosity, love and difficult choices in which prosperity leaves the deepest questions unanswered.

Enter the world of a man who can provide so much, yet still wonders what will ever be enough.
