Story Of God The Story Of Us
$22.99Add to cartBefore the Bible was a book it was flesh and blood. “The ever present ache of exile rises above the comforting sounds of the river, as the image of the house of the LORD in ruins breaks the peace. . . . Despite the warmth of the fire, he feels a chill. He wraps his cloak around him and looks into the eager faces of his people, then closes his eyes. ‘Picture this scene . . .'” Travel with Sean Gladding between the lines of the Scriptures to listen in on the conversations of people wrestling with the Story we have received.
Whether sitting around a campfire in Babylon, reclining at table in Asia Minor or huddled together by candlelight in Rome, we meet people encountering the Story for the first time and for the hundred and first time. With them we hear a tale that is at once both familiar and surprising.
A book that can be read alone but preferably with others, here is an account of Scripture that introduces us to people who remind us of ourselves, because as much as the Bible is a story about God, it’s also a story about us.
