DESCRIPTION:
Poetic and Powerful Lewis does a great job of taking the stories from Scripture he heard as a child and presenting the "grown up" themes of how God's rich love for each of us is displayed in each story. As a child, we remember many of the Bible characters being filled with great strength and heroism. As adults, we become jaded with life and our own failures. Through eloquent, poetic, and imaginative writing, Lewis shows us the deeper meanings in each of our favorite stories of God's marvelous grace and magnificent glory. This book will encourage you as you understand more of how great the love of God is for you.. "easy read format" according to Jmpwa.

Dr. Lewis does a wonderful job putting the reader inside these 9 Biblical passages and helping us to experience the human emotions involved in these historical events. I've read it several times already and would definitely recommend it!
