Why? Why? Why do you persecute me? Jesus asked. Persecuted Lover should inspire a personal reflection of who Jesus is in the life of the reader and the audience. In Acts 9:4, on the road to Damascus, Jesus asked Saul that same question. Sauls response was to ask Who are you, Lord? After finding out who he was persecuting, Saul experienced a personal conversion. My hope is that unpacking and unwrapping the gift found in John 3:16 showcases Gods love, helps you see the magnificence of Jesuss love for you and the right-now power of Gods grace, and have a personal new encounter with Jesus. The more you focus on the finished work of Christ on your behalf and believe that you have everything you need in Christ Jesus, the more the desire to satisfy any longing with the counterfeit vanishes. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lords holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledgethat you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God (Eph. 3:1719).

Could your false beliefs actually become iron bars? Josh Billing once purposed this same line of thinking in a quote that has been morphed down through the decades:It aint what you dont know that gets you into trouble. Its what you know for sure that just aint so.Regardless of whatever morphing this quote may have endured, it has merit. The principle aptly applies to what so many of us experience with regard to our fundamental beliefs about God and what we understand to be the requirements God may be demanding of us. But what if what you know about God just aint so?Portals & Pearls was written to provoke you to reevaluate what you think gospel truth actually means. With devotional-designed chapters, Portals and Pearls is formatted and filled with bite-size ruminations that are engaging, entertaining, and inspiring. In her colorful and clever style, Sherri weaves Gods Word into her adventurous personal experiences to empower lives with freedom and transformation.

Her eyes shut, and her hand went limp in mine. She was gone. I looked at the place to which her eyes had been directed but could see nothing. Tears ran down my cheeks as I stood there in the quiet, dimly lit room. Then I realized I was standing on hallowed ground because the Lord had just been in the room. I wanted so badly for her to open her eyes one more time and tell me what he looked like, but she was gone. She was now healed and at the right hand of the Lord in heaven. I kissed her on the cheek and whispered goodbye. Then for the first time, I thanked God for this job. I finally understood what my purpose was. I had just walked my first patient to the edge of heaven and handed her off to the Lord. I did not know it at the time, but God had only just begun to show me what he wanted me to learn from this journey.

This book is dedicated to all Gods people in the world, big and small. Its an action packed story, from the beginning to the end. It can be Enjoyed, by a wide range of ages. Adults will really enjoy, reading this Story to children. Theyll love the drawings that bring to life, this true Bible story. Children will naturally love it, with all of its characters. I took special care, in keeping the story, as explained in the bible, by telling the story in a way, that children can understand it, more fully. I was inspired to create these, life like pictures, of the characters, in the story of Joseph. I wanted their to be as many pictures as possible, to keep the attention of a child, and also, make the story come alive, for them. The pictures describe the action, love, joy and sorrows of this marvelous story of Joseph and his family. It tells how God came lovingly through, for not only Joseph and his family, in the time of a famine, but also how, the whole world was then saved, from starvation, by Gods wisdom, given to Joseph. Joseph endured, in times of great stress, trials, sorrow, rejection, and disappointments. When all the world, was to have, a deadly famine, the Lord showed Joseph a way, to save people, all over the world, by saving a little, each day. Josephs family, did make mistakes, that was not good, but God caused all things to work together for their good, and the worlds good also. Though all was not good, that happened to Josephs family, yet, God had a great plan, in bringing them, out of their circumstances.

Goliaths Mountain is a fictitious name, but the giants you meet in this book are painfully real. Her father was right, but Rita finds hope and a good liferight here on Goliaths Mountain.
