Produktbeschreibung
History is like a large, beautiful cake. We can cut it into wonderful slices of providence, feast on them piece by piece and be fed. The stories within this book are such slices. Using brief episodes from the past, Christine Farenhorst takes the reader on journeys in which the almighty and ever-present power of God is felt; journeys through which it becomes clear that all things come about not by chance but are ordained by the Father's hand. Each chapter finishes with "Food for thought" consisting of two questions which help hearts contemplate the events portrayed, questions designed for personal application and insight. Consequently, a smorgasbord is presented with food for a family, or a homeschool group, leading to healthy discussions.
Autorenporträt
was born in one of the northern provinces of the Netherlands in 1948. The youngest of six children, she was privileged to often visit parishioners with her father, a pastor and church historian. She would sit on the bar in front of him as he rode his bicycle, and he would nudge her with his knee and command: "Sing, Christine, sing-or I'll bump you off the bike!" So she sang-psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. In 1958, her father accepted a call to Toronto, Canada, and the bike was exchanged for a car. Her father instilled in her a love for history, and today Christine still sings of the remarkable providence of God on the pages of her books. Together with her husband, Anco, a semi-retired veterinarian, Christine resides in Arthur, Ontario. They have 5 children, 27 grandchildren, a dog, a cat and 11 chickens. This is her second book for Joshua Press.
