Böcker av Frank Viola

Two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ met face-to-face with people just like you. Broken, imperfect, sometimes fearful and without hope. The Day I Met Jesus is a beautifully crafted narrative that chronicles the remarkable encounters of five women in the Gospels who were desperate to find wholeness, security, and purpose. Like all of us, these women struggled with the regrets of their pasts, the stresses of their presents, and the worries of their tomorrows.Join Frank Viola and Mary DeMuth on a fascinating journey back in time as they retell the dramatic accounts of five women who met Jesus. Each narrative is told from each woman's unique perspective, yet tightly grounded in the Gospel accounts and faithful to first-century history. Elegantly written and profoundly stirring, this book blends creative narrative with uncommon insight, spiritual depth, and practical application.If you are someone who seeks a renewal of hope, faith, and love, The Day I Met Jesus will make your Bible come to life and usher you into a fresh encounter with your Lord.

Los autores revelan problemas que emergen cuando la iglesia funciona más como una organización comercial, que como un organismo vivo, alejándose de aquello para lo que fue creada. Al reconsiderar el plan revolucionario de Cristo para su iglesia (ser él la cabeza de un cuerpo en pleno funcionamiento en el que todos los creyentes juegan un papel activo) enfrentamos el desafío de tener que decidir si es que podemos seguir llevando adelante la iglesia de esa manera.
