This book will permit families to enjoy Santa Claus and the other secular customs of Christmas within the Christian celebration of Jesus’s birth.  For little children, Santa Claus becomes a real person delivering presents to them from Jesus.  The tale begins with Shai and Adi, the childless owners of an inn in Bethlehem.  When Shai rents out their bedroom, they must sleep in the stable.  During the night, Joseph and Mary arrive and Adi helps Mary through a difficult labor.  They bond, and when an angel appears telling Joseph to flee to Egypt with Mary and Jesus, Shai and Adi go with them and become Jesus’s uncle and aunt.  The book then tells of Jesus growing up with his friends Mary Magdalene and John, his ministry...

A Review of Proverbs Reconstructed by Gus Dallas

E-book format Print: 303 pages Publisher: WestBow Press ( June 24,2011) Synopsis:  Proverbs- while an informative book of the Bible is at times not very user friendly. That's where Gus Dallas comes in, he takes the book and changes it in a way in which it is easier to understand so you can transform your mind and implement the wisdom contained within it's words. My Review: Proverbs is one of my favorite books of the Bible, it contains useful information for a person to apply to their life. However, I have had trouble understanding it at times. That's where Dallas comes in. I found the book started off slow but picked up after a while. Dallas uses language that is easy to understand so people can get the most from Proverb's wise words. A useful tool. I received a complimentary copy from the publisher through Booksneeze. I was not required to write a positive review.  Buy it here: WestBow Press     barnes and noble amazon   My Rati...
