In the Boat with Jesus - E-book - ePub

Israel is unfamiliar territory to many people. Few have tread upon the rocky wilderness of Judea or dipped their toes in the Jordan. Few have witnessed the sun rising behind the mountains of Moab or plucked an olive from a gnarled tree in the garden. Few have camped out under the star-filled sky that spread its arms of welcome to angels on that holy night more than 2, 000 years ago. Author Marian Rizzo invites you to travel beyond the pages of this book into the very presence of Jesus.
Rub elbows with Simon Peter, place your head beside John's on the Savior's breast. Join the crowd as they lay their cloaks and palm branches before Him. Dine with Him in the home of Martha and Mary. Weep with Him at the tomb of Lazarus. Then rise up in anger at the Lord's trial and crucifixion. Mourn with His followers, celebrate His resurrection, stand on the Mount of Olives as He ascends into heaven, and witness Him in His glory.
Let the lessons He taught 2, 000 years ago help you deal with today's issues. Learn from Him. Apply His teachings. And make His story your story.
