* Invites the reader behind the scenes of Bible stories * Opens new
perspectives for individuals, study groups, and sermon writers What
was the reaction of the head waiter at the wedding at Cana when he
realized the wine had run out? What gave the man the idea to lower
his paralyzed friend through the roof to see Jesus? What were the
young men who accompanied Abraham and Isaac on the journey to the
mountain thinking? Much of scripture is comprised of individuals
who are unnamed but have important roles to play in biblical
stories. This illustrated book offers first person accounts of
twenty-one Bible stories (Old Testament, New Testament, and
apocrypha) from the perspectives of bystanders or "sup-porting"
characters, giving us an opportunity to imagine: how would we
react? What would we say or do given similar circumstances today?
This imaginative collection includes thought-provoking discussion
questions for congregational or individual reflection, and can be
invaluable for fresh perspectives in sermons and study groups.
