DESCRIPTION:
The compelling love story between The Creator and Creation tracks our human condition throughout history from the very beginning. Jealousy, anger, grief, faithfulness, longing and joy are among the various themes of poetry, narrative, ritual law and instruction, letters, prophesies and wise sayings. Hands down, The Bible is my favorite book. Paradise to Pentecost and Beyond contains reflections on parts of these writings. I hope the reader is led to read The Bible often and love it as I do.
