A Charming tale to remind us all that our kindness works
miracles.
When the sun sets and stars fill the sky, the square in the
little town grows quiet and still. The cool air of distant hills
mingles with the sweet scent of baking bread. The moon rises and
glows softly. It s the sort of place where miracles could
happen.
David and Jacob live in the same little, ordinary town, but it s
almost as if they re from different worlds. David is so poor he can
barely feed his family. Jacob is so consumed with staying rich he
thinks about nothing but money. But the two men have one thing in
common: they both believe that miracles are big, magical things
that can only happen somewhere else, to someone else.
But when Jacob wakes up from a nap in synagogue one day, sure
that God has demanded twelve loaves of bread from him, all this
changes in amazing ways you d never expect.
A delightful, timeless legend based on Jewish tradition, "In God
s Hands" tells of the ordinary miracles that occur when we really,
truly open our eyes to the world around us.

The great stories of the Old and New Testaments are best understood

storytelling and history, poetry and prose, chronicle and
commentary. Trevor Dennis is an academic theologian with a gift for
storytelling. In this highly acclaimed Bible retelling, now
available in a new format edition, he goes back to the roots of the
biblical writings, bringing fresh insights into the familiar
stories in his novelistic retelling. His aim to bring the stories
of the Bible alive is achieved in a book which brims with verve,
humour and originality, in a style that will appeal to readers of
all ages.
