Teach Me Lord, to Dance

By Sofia Steryo-Bartmus, Author "Paws of Wisdom" Valuable Lessons We Can Learn From Our Pets If you interviewed Jesus, what would you ask? And what would He answer? George Pettingell has done a thorough job in introducing to us who Jesus is. He makes Jesus come alive as you turn each page, as if you were sitting there with him asking the questions. In this unique interviewing style Jesus give us answers from the easiest to the most uncomfortable questions. This book is great for believers in Christ, old and new, who still have many unanswered questions, as well as for non-believers; those who are seeking and those who are trying to disprove Christ. Although the answers are mostly based on Scripture and Bible stories, they are written in a simple, current and easy to understand language. I enjoyed the book very much. I found it interesting, informative and thought provoking. What if Jesus is who he says he is? Then what? What are we to do next? If you have never had a personal relationship with Jesus, you certainly will want to have one by the time you finish this book. "Teach me Lord, to dance" is a timeless reference book for everyone's library (including the reference material in the back of the book for future study).

Teach Me, Lord, to Dance

I loved this book, it made me feel so good when I read it. It clearly reminded me of the book Joshua, that I have liked forever. It asks questions and gives answers that are easy to understand and helpful in keeping your faith. I would highly recomend this book to add to your library.

A one-of-a-kind book

Written by radio interviewer George W. Pettingell, Teach Me, Lord, to Dance: An Interview With Jesus is a one-of-a-kind book - it relates a conversation with Jesus Christ. Christ's words flow fluidly in Modern English, yet His message as presented is drawn directly from scriptural texts; the specific texts are cited at the close of the compendium. In the process of reading Christ's reconstructed and interpreted words, the reader is sure to be uplifted by the humility, majesty, sacrifice, and love of the Savior. Highly recommended. "'You appeared to a lot of people after your resurrection, didn't you?' 'I appeared to the Eleven several times. I walked and talked with two other disciples for several hours along the road from Jerusalem to the town of Emmaus. I appeared to my half brothers James and Judas. I appeared to a crowd of more than 500 of my followers in Galilee.'"

It's like sitting down with Jesus

So many people have warped impressions of Jesus, -- They have Him as still a babe in the manger, or left perpetually hanging on the cross. But George Pettingell introduces you to the real Jesus, who wants more than anything else to walk with us and talk with us, and be included in every facet of our daily lives. Through his book, George helps the reader see that Jesus is not some distant mysterious untouchable being, but as one who lived life as a real human man, with the same abilities to laugh and cry, feel joy and pain, that we all feel. By using his comfortable conversational questioning style, Pettingell covers dozens of topics to help understand and simplify points and stories in the bible. There is nothing stuffy or "preachy" about it. The book makes you feel like pulling up a cup of coffee and including yourself in the conversation. No subjects are off limits, and by book's end, you feel like you have just spent an afternoon with a new best friend (because you really have!) It leaves you sorry that it ended, and yearning for a repeat visit. This would be a wonderful gift book for someone who drops the name of Jesus occasionally, but doesn't really know Him. (They will by the time they finish the book.) It would also be a great book for a Christian who just wants to know Jesus better, or who wants a closer walk. It asks the same questions you would ask Jesus himself if you were to sit down for a talk with Him. The thing I love best about the book is the way it opens your mind to new insights about Jesus's perspectives on so many subjects. Days after reading it, I find myself still thinking about new points of view that the author caused me to consider. I loved it!
