Who, Me? Yes, You!
Author: Roy Good
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973676427
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
You have heard these stories over and over again. But - since we know the stories so well, it may be hard for us to really put ourselves in the shoes of the story teller. For instance, what thoughts raced through Joseph’s mind when he was hustled out of prison early one morning? Certainly not that he was about to become Pharoah’s right-hand man.While these characters tell their stories as they may have happened in their time (with some hopefully sanctified imagination added) they are able to jump across the centuries to tell them to us in our time and setting. So they may quote a song that is found in one of our hymn books. Or we will hear Jonah tell his listeners to “Fasten your seatbelts, we’re going for a ride.” These are real stories of real people (and a few animals) who faced real dilemmas and real temptations. Sometimes they make wrong choices. But God is able to show His strength in our weakness. To turn our sorrow into joy. He can accomplish His purposes in spite of our failures. May God use these stories for our encouragement. Hebrews 12:1.2.

Knowing the Father
Author: Carl E. Zahrte

Category : Jewish girls
Languages : en
Pages : 446
Book Description
For years Miriam felt emptiness in her heart. Growing up when Jesus lived, this Jewish girl never knew who her father was. She suffered added grief at age twelve through the sudden death of her mother. But her mother had taught her to trust in the Almighty, and she found comfort with her uncle and aunt who became her loving guardians at their inn on the road to Jericho. As an attractive teenager she and her cousin Gideon experience fond feelings for one another. However, it's Adam, a Jewish mercenary serving Roman soldiers, with whom she falls in love. After they marry and she becomes pregnant, Adam is killed by ruthless King Herod Agrippa. In despair, Miriam tries to kill a leader of the apostles, but a man stops her and she hisses at him, "Who do you think you are?" She almost faints when he replies, "I am your father." A caring pastor who wants people to know that God loves them, even if they may suffer one trial after another, Carl Zahrte knows how to listen and offer comfort and hope. His many years of preaching, counseling, and ministering to people who are hurt when life seems unfair provide experience on which he draws in telling the story of Miriam, the heroine of Knowing the Father. A loving husband, father and grandfather, he can relate to the issues of everyday life and knows how to apply the teachings of the Bible so that his hearers, readers, and all whom he serves can ind strength and joy through faith in Jesus Christ.
