Letters to the Editor

You may be familiar with the Biblical facts of the Genesis narrative of Abraham, but the author of this unique book has carved a new perspective by opening to the reader the lives and personalities of the characters. By examining their common human psychological responses to the situations the characters encountered, each person in the narrative becomes real and knowable. The title for the book reflects its actual content: a series of letters to a newspaper editor that took place over many months via email. The initial conversation developed into a study of the geography, social conditions and customs of that Biblical era and included the background history. A careful assessment of characters and personalities that are revealed in the Biblical narrative shaped the content of this book. It became a conversation not only with the editor, but also with God as He revealed to them deeper insights that were embedded right in the narrative. You will find this book to be an insightful and refreshing read while you learn about Abraham's experiences with his very personal God who gently guided him during his spiritual growth to a full faith response to God's love.
