Produktinformationen zu „Finding the Way Through Water (ePub)“
Finding the Way through Water explores how water contributes to our understanding of the created world and our Christian beliefs. As an Emeritus Professor and an ordained priest in the Church of England, author Roland Price explores how water features in the Bible. Important at creation, water brings about global catastrophe, enables escape from slavery, ensures survival in the wilderness, prepares people for worship, and sustains warriors and exiles. In the gospels, Jesus turns water into wine, stills the storm, has his feet washed with a womans tears, and washes his own disciples feet. For the Christians who were the first followers of the Way water was important in baptism and in prophecy.
You will be surprised by the extent to which water pervades Gods story in the Bible, and how an understanding of the management of water today can make that story accessible to all. Take a look at familiar stories in the Old and New Testaments from the unfamiliar perspective of water. Learn something about the relationship between the world of the Bible and our modern world. Prepare to be challenged, whether you are a water sector professional, or a Christian wanting to understand more about water in Gods world today.
The forty brief chapters make this an ideal book to read and discuss during the forty days of Lent
