Just Like Us

Have you ever wondered what your favorite Bible characters would be like today? Would Job’s family own a petting zoo? Would Samson own a gym? Would the Virtuous Wife in Proverbs 31 be “Mother of the Year”? Would Miriam be the Worship Leader in a local church? Is it possible Abraham could have been a cattle rancher?
Human beings (over thousands of years) are the same in emotion and motives (and actions). Clothing has changed from one time period to another, but people have not. When you read The Bible, please notice similarities in a person’s reaction to their particular situation. Could this happen today? If not, take into customs of that day.  This may be the missing piece to complete comprehension.
This kind of Bible study literally brings scripture to life in your world. You are more like your biblical ancestors than you might think. For more information on this topic, please acquire a copy of my book, All for One: The Towns of Ohio Complete Trilogy (produced by PublishAmerica).  May God bless you.
