| Résumé : |
This bold retelling of Luke 1-2, based on Eugene PetersonÔÇÖs Message translation, reads like a novel and invites readers to experience the Nativity with fresh wonder. To Eugene PetersonÔÇÖs The Message Bible translation, John Blase adds his own storytelling voice, exploring the familiar events from multiple first-person viewpoints. What emerges is the intimate story of unlikely peopleÔÇöa frightened teenaged girl, a worried carpenter, a collection of senior citizens, a disillusioned young shepherdÔÇömeeting up with the divine as they bumble and stumble toward the realization that the little one just born is the One. This retold story of Word made flesh invites readers to react appropriatelyÔÇöwith eyes opened wide in wonder, jaws dropped in amazement, and hearts rejoicing. The beautiful design and Amanda JolmanÔÇÖs lively line drawings make this book a fitting gift as well as a Christmas tradition that families will treasure for years to come. ** |
