Little Bird Bible Jonah Retweeted

The Good News Short, Tweet, & to the Point

Beschreibung

Jonah Retweeted Using the modern language of emojis and the contemporary design of a social media page, the Book of Jonah has never been so approachable, engaging, fun, and easy to read. Designed with the 21st Century reader in mind, each Little Bird Bible book is a short paraphrase translation that applies: · Diverse spiritual commentary · Gender-inclusive language · Inline pronunciation guides · Character biographies · 140-character chapter summaries · Emotive religious icons · Emoji word pictures ¿¿¿¿¿ to simplify and enhance the Bible reading experience. This Retweeted version of Jonah, formatted like a social media page, inserts a number of side conversations parallel to the original text from a theologically diverse cast of historic philosophers and thinkers who debate and discuss the meaning and significance of key passages. Further, the Retweeted version is seasoned with a series of built in reflection questions and hashtag prompts, to best bring the discussion and interpretation of the sacred text into an ongoing open online dynamic discussion. Readers who would like a more straight-forward reading of the book without these inline living footnotes should check out the Abridged version of this book. Jonah would rather die than see his enemies be forgiven; that is what is at the heart of this famous story of a run-away prophet stuck in the belly of a whale. This surprising little book of epic contrasts has a lot to teach us when it comes to intolerance, prejudice, faith, and God's love for all people. The Book of Jonah is a wonderful tale of what to do (and what not to do) when we find God's mercy is too big for us to swallow Young adult and teenage readers will enjoy the union of Scripture with emojis, while readers who do not have time to read a traditional Bible will appreciate this translation's brevity. Little Bird Bible books are the perfect way to introduce the major themes and teachings of Scripture to readers new to the Bible, while also appealing to long time avid Bible readers with a fresh interpretation and added unique multidisciplinary commentary. We hope you enjoy Jonah.
