Produktbeschreibung
Parables For The Purposeful Walk follows in the tradition of Jack Worril's first two books, "Parables for Plain People" and "More Parables for Plain People," offering brief devotional messages for daily encouragement and inspiration. It was in the metropolitan Atlanta area that he made his living, raised his own family, carried out his various ministries, and witnessed the events and news items that have served as the basis for his writings. Since 2012, Jack's ministry opportunities have expanded to include medical and evangelistic missions to Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Myanmar and Brazil, as well as several local Mission projects. Each of these personal experiences has added new perspective to the concept of walking the Purposeful Walk, and contributed to the enrichment of Jack's observations of the working of God in the everyday lives of those with whom he has come in contact. The result is a collection of articles composed with the objective of focusing the readers' attention on the Presence of God in each day's events, whether personal, local, or worldwide. Jack's desire is that these Parables will serve to give encouragement, guidance and inspiration to each one who engages in the purposeful walk through life.
