Eyewitness - Stories of Advent and Easter

Thought provoking and inspiring stories of Advent and Easter - two great Christian celebrations. Seventeen stories from people who were near the action. 38 pages, with full page colour photographs placing each story in a modern setting.
These inspiring and quirky stories, from the author's imagination, are based on stories straight from the Bible. What would the story look like from an eyewitness? A different point of view from the traditional stories, these tales challenge the reader to think for themselves about the things Jesus said and did.
The stories are told from the unique perspective of people such as: a temple worker, a pigeon trader, a neighbour from Nazareth, a donkey farmer, a servant of the High Priest and many more.
