It tells the story of the first man to measure time, Father Time, who embarks on a redemptive journey to teach the true value of life’s moments. With a 4.4-star rating from over 11,000 readers and top rankings in Religious Science Fiction and Christian Allegories, this book challenges readers to rethink how they spend their time and embrace every day as a blessing. ## Description From the author who's inspired millions worldwide with books like Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven comes a compelling fable about the first man on Earth to count the hours ... the man who became father time. The inventor of the world's first clock is punished for trying to measure God's greatest gift. He is banished to a cave for centuries and forced to listen to the voices of all who come after him seeking more days, more years. Eventually, with his soul nearly broken, Father Time is granted his freedom, along with a magical hourglass and a mission: a chance to redeem himself by teaching two earthly people the true meaning of time. He returns to our world—now dominated by the hour-counting he so innocently began—and commences a journey with two unlikely partners: one a teenage girl who is about to give up on life, the other a wealthy old businessman who wants to live forever. To save himself, he must save them both. And stop the world to do so. Told in Albom's signature spare, evocative prose, this remarkably original tale will inspire readers everywhere to reconsider their own notions of time, how they spend it, and how precious it truly is.

Our individual actions affect each other. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely the Very Best of Mitch Albon's Work l *by M***N on June 5, 2026* I may not have read all of his work, but I have loved at least four. This one has impacted my life in amazing ways. I plan to find and enjoy everything that he has ever created. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't let time be your prison *by A***R on October 28, 2012* This was another thought provoking book from the author. For me personally it came at a period in my own life when time is all I think about. My dad is dying his time slipping away , all of my mother's time is spent caring for him, my job wants more and more of my time, my husband gets less and less of it and my children are drifting in their lives thinking their time is endless. Everyday is a race with the clock but most of my time is spent doing what I have to do and not what I want to. This book reminded me that every day should not be ruled by the clock. That, yes we have obligations such as work that require adherence to a schedule, but sometimes we speed up our own clocks just by the power we give to time- both the counting of it and the passing of it. Time will pass and we need to accept that fact not waste time railing against it. We need to slow down and savor our time. We don't have to fit in as much as possible into every hour of every day. For each one of us our time here on Earth is finite. We need to learn to cherish all of our time -the happy and the sad. It is a perfect book for this time in our world when everything is moving faster and faster. Everyone wants more and more of everything. If we have so many devices in our world to make our lives easier why do we seem to have less and less time for the things that really matter to us? The answer is choice. What choices do we make everyday? What do we sacrifice in our dance with time? --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/290347-the-time-keeper](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/290347-the-time-keeper) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
