What is the faith journey really about? Why was Jesus so hated? What do we know of the Kingdom of God? How is Jesus' resurrection relevant? What do we know of the Holy Spirit? How will it all end, and why is "the end of the age" associated with "birth pangs?"Reflections On Living In Grace is an exciting and illuminating book addressing questions such as these. A unique approach invites the reader to explore 130 themes found in the Gospels and the Book of Acts. Each theme is accompanied by a reflection intended to prompt deeper thinking. There is no armchair theologising here.The present-day relevance of each theme is clearly emphasised. This book is as encouraging as it is accessible. Each theme is kept to two pages. In this way, the busy reader is able to engage with a brief reading prior to commencing the day's activities. For those who have more time, the book can be used as a aid for more intentionally contemplating the mystery that is life.

"This is a wonderful tour guide that points us to the beauty, truth and relevance of Jesus. It is a precious resource that allows us to stand back and gaze across the Gospels at the miracles of Jesus and the perfect, sinless and suffering-free future kingdom to which they point. I pray this book brings much delight in Jesus and puts spiritual wind in your sails." Andy Pearce Senior Minister - Rockingham Anglican ChurchThroughout history, Jesus' miracles have had a seductive pull on the human psyche. But what miracles did Jesus perform? How was He able to do so? Where did His power come from? Why did He perform them anyway? Why did His miraculous wonders create such intense controversy among the Jews? How are Jesus' miracles relevant for us today?Those who take the time to work through the 42, two-page studies, will find answers not only to these questions, but discover so much more about the amazing occurrences that are The Miracles of Jesus.
