New Book I am reading, 40 Days.

A favorite author of mine that I like to read, Alton Gansky, who writes both nonfiction and fiction, just recently wrote a new book called 40 Days - Encountering Jesus Between the Resurrection and Ascension published in 2007 by B&H Publishing Group, Nashville TN.

Besides having read several of Gansky's excellent fiction books, earlier this year I read his work Uncovering the Bible's Greatest Mysteries and was immediately caught up with it. I liked this book so well, that I purchased the book he had written previously titled Uncovering God's Mysterious Ways. While I enjoyed Uncovering the Bible's Greatest Mysteries more, they both were good reads. So when I found that he had written another nonfiction book, 40 Days, I couldn't resist ordering it.

Well it showed up in the mail today. Yippee!

Hey, did you hear the good news? When the disciples showed up to check out the tomb, guess what? They didn't find Jesus' dead body lying there! When Jesus' body found them, it wasn't dead anymore! Their Jesus was alive again! Hallelujah!

I might be a little excited about getting to read this book!

Another Quote from a book I am reading.

"Man was created originally to have fellowship with God. This fellowship is so vital that without it man is like a jet aircraft flying in a dense fog and suddenly losing all its instruments."

-Hal Lindsey, The Greatest Works of Hal Lindsey - The Late Great Planet Earth, chapter 12, Inspirational Press: New York, NY, 1994.

Translation:

Man is utterly lost and blind without God, living each moment of life on the brink of eternal disaster.

Yes we are still here.

Greetings!

This space has not had much going on for awhile. I have plenty of material to post, but have had little time with the work schedule and its demands to spend the time posting. However, I allotted a little web time this afternoon, so here's a short post so you, and you know who you are, know we still exist.

Fellow blogger, An Elder For JC, is having a tough time right now. Remember him in prayer. His wife has not been doing very well for the last several weeks. Reports of her condition are very discouraging to hear. Apparantly she is very sick.

Father, God in Heaven we remember this dear lady in our prayers, we pray for healing, we pray for mercy in her situation, we pray for your intervention in her situation, we pray for our Elder brother, we pray for him as he deals with the situation, we pray that he will be strengthened and touched by You as he deals with the realities of the situations facing him, in Jesus name we ask and pray these things. We know that as we stand by them, You also are right there, helping and making a difference that only You can make, a difference that we believe and depend on You to make, that we are unable in and of ourselves to make. Amen.
