About this book
“Many of us learned Bible stories as children. When we revisit them later in life we bring a rich treasure of life experience that gives a depth and meaning to the stories.” — Macrina Scott, OSF
Biblical educator Macrina Scott invites individuals and groups to read the Bible through the lens of their own life stories, and to see how God has been at work in their lives.
Twenty-four chapters revisit the great stories of the Old Testament: Abraham, Hagar and Sarah, Rebekah and the twins, Joseph, Moses, Naomi, Hannah and Samuel, David, King Solomon, Jeremiah, Judith, Tobit and Job. Each reflection draws on modern scholarship and the author’s insight as a religious educator.
With hints for facilitators and questions for discussion and prayer, it offers rich opportunities for spiritual growth, especially for those who have fulfilled their responsibilities to children and careers.
