Adam and Eve, Jacob and Esau, Samson and Delilah, Peter and Paul and many other characters in the Bible – what would they say to us if they were living today? How might they explain their actions, reveal their motives, the desires or concerns or fears at work in their hearts? In this book they do speak, in words based on the Biblical records and the spiritual imagination of the author. In speaking they reveal their natures, their thoughts, the things they learned or failed to learn, the spiritual principles behind their actions. This is important for us to know because what they were then, we are now. They are mirrors in which we can see ourselves. By looking at them, we can better understand what we are and why we do what we do and what God wants of us. How He works in the heart and how perilous it is to ignore or reject Him. How glorious to believe and obey Him. For all those who are deeply interested in human nature and God’s nature, this is a book to treasure and to look into again and again.
