Alive, Active, and Available for You!

Have you dismissed the Old Testament because you think you will not understand it? Or have you concluded that you would not have anything in common with those ancient stories? What's in It for Me? was written to get you past such roadblocks. The thirty-four stories are a sampling of lives you will meet when you open the Old Testament. Some names—Abraham and Moses, for instance—are famous. Others, like Jephthah, the blameless outcast, and Abigail, a defiant wife, are not as well known. No one, though, knows the name of the woman who single-handedly saved her city from annihilation. You will connect with these and other personalities while contemplating five questions after each story. What's in It for Me? offers you a peek into the Old Testament treasure trove of shared life experiences.
