Every Then and Now

Description

If you read the gospels in the bible, you find yourself on the journey Jesus walked. But what if you were to stop along the way and see the impact that Jesus had on individuals’ lives? Every Then and Now does exactly that. This collection of poems invites us to stop awhile with those who received a miracle from Him. We witness the circumstances leading up to and the miracle itself in the ‘then’ and we imagine the individual’s thoughts, feelings and actions afterwards in the ‘now.’ For example, what did blind Bartimaeus do the next morning when he no longer has an excuse to beg? Devotionals within each chapter give space to pause and ponder on the poems and the bible stories they tell and encourage you to still hope for the miracle you are waiting for.
