Word aan gespoor tot ʼn nuwe ontmoeting met jou Verlosser.

Twee duisend jaar gelede het Jesus se pad gekruis met doodgewone mense. Hulle was dikwels gebroke, onvolmaak en sonder hoop. Maar Hy het hulle lewens aangeraak, hulle heelgemaak en die lewensdoel gegee waarvoor hulle so desperaat was.

Frank Viola en Mary DeMuth neem jou in Die dag toe ek Jesus ontmoet het op ’n fassinerende reis terug in tyd met die dramatiese verhale van vyf vroue wat Jesus ontmoet het: die vrou wat op owerspel betrap is, die prostituut wat Jesus se voete gesalf het, die vrou wat aan bloedvloeiing gely het, die Samaritaanse vrou en Maria van Betanië. Elke verhaal word vanuit die vrou se unieke perspektief vertel, maar is steeds Skrifgetrou volgens die gebeure uit die Evangelies.

Die fiktiewe dagboekinskrywings word afgesluit met die verhaal uit die Bybel en ’n toepassingsgedeelte. Besprekingsvrae verskyn agter in die boek wat dit ideaal maak om in kleingroepe te bespreek.

So many of us suffer from an intense spiritual inferiority complex. We are insecure about God's love for us. We don't understand our true worth in his eyes. We struggle with guilt over mistakes we've made. We are ashamed of our own lack of devotion or fervor. We want Jesus to light the flame of love in our hearts, to feel as we did when we first received his salvation. On the other hand, following Jesus has become stale and familiar to countless Christians today. The flame of first love has waned and our zeal for the Lord has cooled. We need to be inspired and challenged to utterly abandon our lives to Jesus anew. With a deep sense of awe and a fierce intimacy, this unique book explores five women in the Gospels whose encounters with Jesus revolutionized their lives. Through their imagined diaries, readers get a glimpse of the inner thoughts of the Samaritan woman, the woman caught in adultery, the prostitute, the woman with an issue of blood, and Mary of Bethany. Readers meet these women in their most desperate moments and feel the captivating love and forgiveness of their Savior, revealing how Jesus intersects their lives.
