I am happy to break in to my Bible alphabet blog series with some exciting news.... I have a new book coming up! (which is about time...)
Yep, when bloggers are getting quiet, they're probably hiding behind their computer screen and working on a book :) Spirit of Truth is my sixth (English language) book and for several reasons (such as procrastination) it took me quite some time to finish it.
In this new release I am taking the reader back in time to one of the most famous questions ever asked in the history of mankind... and that is the one Pilate desperately confronted Jesus with: ‘and what is truth?’
It is the very scene where Jesus stands before Pilate that I have used to unfold the historical case truth vs. lie. I have taken Pilate's question and related it to the 9th commandment which teaches us not to accuse anyone falsely or in other words: speak truth.
Today, as in Pilate's time, we live in a world that is made up of accusations, lies and gossip. We are constantly being bombarded with stories about people cheating, lying, and accusing others of being the reason for the mess they are in. Such practices have even gotten entertainment value. Pilate's question still lingers in our courtrooms everyday. As a matter of fact, it lingers in our homes, schools, businesses and churches. What is truth? A very relevant question for today.
It will be a few more weeks before the paperback version will be available, but... you can get your Kindle edition right now for only $2.99!
Get your e-book copy of Spirit of Truth today and be blessed and encouraged as you read through the pages! In the coming weeks I will post some give-aways and recommendations.
Hi Marja - Congratulations on your new book! I just ordered a copy for my Kindle. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome Susan. I value your feedback, if you have time to write me a word or two later
DeleteHi Marja: I think I will wait until the paperback version comes out. That way I can read it and pass it on to a friend.
ReplyDeleteHi Cecelia, the paperback will mainly be for sales within Europe because the S&H overseas is outrageously high. But I am happy to send you one if you are willing to review it of course :)
DeleteThis does sound like it would indeed be relevant. You have a knack for addressing such good topics. Congratulations! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Karen, the topics are based on the Ten Commandments... but bringing it closer to home :)
DeleteWonderful! It sounds like a winner, Marja!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope so Jeanette, thanks for the encouragement!
DeleteHi Marja - good to meet you and thank you for your comment on Karen's blog. Interesting to see you live in the Netherlands; good luck with your book - it will spark many people's interest ... and we need lots of truth, honest and simple and down to earth ... without self-interest being part of what people talk about. Cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks Hilary for your kind words and visit!
