Unafraid (2001) is a novel by Francine Rivers.

Abstract

This novel concludes the five-volume series (A Lineage of Grace) devoted by the Author to female figures in the family tree of Jesus, by portraying Mary as "an ordinary woman striving to please God in the same way that women still do today. Using the biblical account of Jesus' life as a framework, Rivers adds such imaginative scenes as Mary watching the young Jesus healing his little sister, Anne, or Mary pondering Jesus' ability to see that there is always enough bread and oil in the larder to keep the family afloat. There are warm mother-son exchanges (You're so thin!) and personal details (Jesus had Mary's chin ... but no one ever said Jesus had her eyes ...)" (from Publisher's description).
