Weiss' book makes Bible characters ordinary and accessible.

In God Lives Next Door, Lyle Weiss shows how ordinary people can share the same extraordinary experiences of God that characters in the Bible had. By exploring such issues as the presence of evil, the call to mission, the need for repentance, and the experience of love, the author invites readers to reflect on their own encounters with God in light of the lives of many biblical characters. It's very down to earth, and theology is made as readable as a paperback novel. If you've never read a book about God, the Bible, or personal spirituality, this is the one to get you started. In God Lives Next Door, the extraordinary is made ordinary, the inaccessible is made accessible, and the divine is brought to the human. What more could one ask for?
