Book Description

August 20, 2005 invert
Nothing was the same after they met him Lord. Parable. Riddle. Savior. Mystery. Jesus. And one thing is certain. When people meet him, they're never the same again. Their lives are changed forever. In this book you'll meet some of those people. Sometimes we know their names: Sometimes we don't. Sometimes we know how their stories ended: sometimes they've disappeared into the sands of time. In every case, though, the stories you're about to read are based on actual, true events. All of these storytellers met the Story himself. Each story includes personal reflections and study questions dealing with topics like: * Questioning your faith * Dealing with temptation * Making choices * Loving Jesus More than just good stories, you'll find opportunities to learn life lessons, grow closer to God, and deepen your faith. Step into the stories of those who walked with Jesus and be changed forever.


Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to meet Jesus face to face? We often forget that for a handful of people in ancient Palestine, meeting Jesus was as real as meeting a friend for lunch! This collection of fictional, first-person accounts tells the stories of those who met, knew, and loved Jesus. •Listen to Mary reflect on her mysterious young boy as she and Joseph escape with Jesus to Egypt. •Eavesdrop on Satan as he tempts Jesus in the desert. •Hear what goes through the mind of a teenage guy in a death squad as he watches Jesus pardon a condemned woman. These and many other characters tell us what it was like to meet the strange, serious, joyful, emotional rabbi from Nazareth. Each voice helps us better understand the Jesus they knew and how he changed their lives in profound ways. Every story includes questions for reflection and commentary to help you meet the mystery for yourself.

This review is from: Never the Same: Stories of Those Who Encountered Jesus (invert) (Paperback)
Even though this is aimed at teens, I got so much out of it that I used it in a devotion. I have already purchased another copy to donate to the church library.
