Book Overview
When Yeshua (Jesus) was twelve, he walked to Jerusalem with his parents. As a Jewish boy, he entered the Second Temple and spoke with the elders there. The elders were amazed at the depth of His understanding of the Tanakh. Even so, they could not have predicted how this young man would challenge their beliefs and change the world for generations.
Around the same time, another young Jewish boy, born far away, also deeply yearned to understand his Jewish faith's scriptures and God. This boy, Simeon, never met Yeshua in person but became acquainted with Yeshua's teachings through disciples who traveled, carrying His teachings to anyone who would listen. Subsequently, Simeon was responsible for converting a thousand-year old pagan empire. These converts were among the first generation of The Way, followers of Yeshua.
M. S. Thomas is perpetually curious, values truth highly, and has a vivid imagination that answers questions when facts are unavailable. Thomas lives in Texas but loves to travel and learn about different places and the people who inhabit them. This book reflects a personal commitment to loving God, self, and others - Everybody Always
Carole Anne Sarah's background in Social Work plus inherited storytelling genes brings livable (and hateable) characters and lively adventure to an obscure story. Sarah greets every morning saying, "Good morning, God. This is Carole Anne reporting for duty." She writes devotion and leads a life group at her church. She has been a content writer, ghost writer, and copy editor, but this book is deeply personal.
Her favorite line is in chapter 19, "It is so much easier to love myself when I know how much God loves me." (Simeon)
