Jeff White collaborated with 17 illustrators in this astonishingly beautiful retelling of the classic bible stories from the perspective of the leading characters. "... become an eyewitness to God's story in your life."
The meditations and reflections in this book cast many of the familiar stories in a fresh new light and give pause for thought.
Take the "Magnificat", for instance:
"
So ... why me?
No one would look at me and say, "Now there's the mother of a king!" No one ever mistook me for someone who belonged in a castle. I can't tell you why God chose me, but he did, and that's all that matters.
God said, "You", and I said, "Yes."
Who are YOU?
You might be just like me - normal, unexceptional, as average as they come. But that's not what God thinks about you. God thinks the world of you. If God can do something extraordinary through me, he most definitely can do it through you, too.
So ... why not you?
When god points his finger and says, "You," will you say, "Yes"?
"
