Weddings and picnics, children and beggars, kindness and grace. Seventeen thought provoking and inspiring stories from people who were near the action in stories of Jesus. 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 of miracles, parables and healings are told from a wide range of unique perspectives, such as: a wedding that ran out of wine, a boy with a picnic lunch, a pre school outing, a blind man and many more.
