Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
One of Library Journal's "Best Books 2013" (spirituality/religion)
ForeWord 2013 Book of the Year Award Finalist (Graphic Novels and
Comics) Thousands of people start each day with a shot of Coffee
with Jesus, the enormously popular online comic strip. Irreverent
at times, yet always insightful, this volume features classic
entries and all new, exclusive material that was born out of artist
David Wilkie's frustration with the polarized political climate in
America. "Originally created as a one-off, single-panel comic on my
blog, utilizing old advertising clip art for the main characters
and Sunday school clip art for the person of Jesus, I simply
enjoyed the notion of Jesus appearing at table with these people
(dressed as they were and sharing coffee with them) to refute their
claims of how he might vote on any particular issue, to convince
them that they cannot confuse their flag with their God--to set
them straight, as it were," explains Wilkie. But it didn't stop
here. Soon the Jesus of Coffee with Jesus could be seen offering
counsel to a recurring cast of characters on their personal and
work lives. The characters--Carl, Lisa, Ann, Kevin and Joe--all
honestly engage with Jesus about their successes and failures and
wants and needs, effectively showing what conversation with God--or
prayer--might look like. Poignant, pointed, and rife with good
theology, Coffee with Jesus is organized around six themes: getting
to know Jesus, spiritual disciplines, relationships, culture,
church, and the challenges of life. With exclusive material like
twelve-panel mega-strips and "behind the strip" reflections on
life, faith and art, Wilkie inventively poses answers to the
perpetual Christian speculation, "What would Jesus do?"
Includes almost one hundred maps, satellite and aerial
photographs, and computer graphics to illustrate the products of
remote sensing. An indispensable guidebook for ecologists,
conservation biologists, and resource managers.
