Moments Bible

Moments Bible

Like most households with small children, our family struggles with the topics addressed in the "God, I Need To Talk To You About..." series. We have purchased disrespect, lying, laziness, stealing, paying attention, bad temper and whining. Thank goodness, only one sinful trait is focused on per book!

Each book is written from the point of view of a child, about 10 years old, who has had a conflict and is being instructed on how to improve it. They are written as a prayer in which the child discusses with the Lord his bad habit and what his parents have instructed, and how he feels about all this.

On a few pages of each book, in the drawings and not part of the main text, are some pertinent Scriptures showing the two sides of the problem. For instance, in our dog-eared, sad, worn-out copy of "G. I. N. T. T. T. Y. A. Whining," there are these three Scriptures:

"A fool's mouth is his undoing." (Proverbs 18:7),

"A wise man keeps himself under control." (Proverbs 29:11), and

"The quiet words of the wise are more to be heeded." (Ecclesiastes 9:17).

As a homeschool mom, I really like the "God, I need to talk to you about..." series. I initially bought these little books to just read over with my kids. I figured that they would just be an inexpensive lesson that we'd read through once or twice. However, they quickly became much more than that!

There has been a hundred times when we break from our educational plans and work on character issues for a while. The small size of these books makes it easy to keep them handy. (Ours are in a small shoebox on the school table that also holds our erasers, rulers, paper clips, and the like.) Whenever there is a disruptive issue- say, whining about the perceived length of a math worksheet- I pull out the little book and read it to her. If the behavior persists, my daughter has to read it to me. If there is still a problem, she then has to read me the contrasting Scriptures only. We haven't yet come to the point where I've had her write out the Scriptures.

After that, if they are still struggling, I would say call it a day! It can be hard to keep Scripture in the forefront of our discipline when we just want the behavior to STOP. These little books really help me to stay calm, cool, and God-glorifying in the hard moments of homeschooling my kids.

God Moments in Time $10.99 "If you are looking for a book to read that uses big words that need a dictionary or thesaurus to understand their meaning then God Moments In Time is not for you. However, if you are looking for a book to read that is simple, yet profound then this is a book for you. There are few books that can be read in basically one sitting. You will be captivated by the nuggets that Thomas Brewer brings to the surface in the Scriptures, but even more captivated in how he moved from thousands of years ago to present day life situations that we as Christians can apply to our lives. For example, in chapter five, one nugget was drawn from Genesis 24:10-20. This is the story of Rebekah drawing water for the camels of Abraham's servant sent to find a wife for Isaac. It was pointed out that there were most likely 10 camels and that a camel drinks up to twenty-five gallons of water each day. Rebekah physically drew up with a jug, approximately 250 gallons of water, for the servant's camels. The point in the story was to show the extraordinary kindness of Rebekah to a stranger. The chapter ends with a challenge that we can and should show kindness to strangers we meet every day. Throughout the entire book you will learn interesting and insightful facts about biblical culture and customs, but will be shown the practical application to your life through these insights. At the end of the book there are five questions for each chapter. Some of the questions will take you back to the Bible and others will challenge and motivate you in your personal walk with the Lord. God Moments in Time coupled with the questions at the end of the book would make an excellent six week small group study. Too often todayChristian speakers and authors take a small portion of the Scriptures and shape the text to meet a perceived need in the lives of individuals. This type of speaking and writing takes little if any time to help the believer understand the Scriptures, but uses the Scriptures to jump off into what could be found in any secular self help section of bookstores. This does not happen in God Moments In Time. It takes you back to the story of Abraham's servant in Genesis 24 and teaches you how God uses events in life that can become doors of opportunity that shape not only your lives, but the lives of countless individuals many of whom you may never meet. God Moments In Time will not only help you recognize God moments, but will teach you how you can live a life that allows you to experience God moments on an everyday basis. It is refreshing to read a book that uses Scripture as the beginning and the end in teaching us how to open doors of opportunity through everyday events in our lives."

Morning Moments with My Master $24.99 "The author of this inspirational book has filled its pages with love and compassion, a rare insight into God's Word, and with love for all God's creatures. She sincerely believes that God loves everyone and wants each one to surrender his life to Him. She truly desires to be an instrument in His hands to spread His precious love to all. The poems, written over a period of years, are a product of her daily devotions early in the morning. She has gained a love for His Word through her daily study of the Bible and has been inspired by the many writers whose words she has loved and admired. The desire to write poetry was instilled in her at a young age as she had much time to ponder on God's love and the beauty of His creation. Throughout life He has been close by her side to guide her in His ways and to provide guidance through wonderful loving parents, dedicated teachers and Christian leaders. He has been her Counselor, Comforter and Guide through the difficult times in her life. The years were lonesome after losing her husband but a loving God has given her an entirely new life and given her the joy of serving Him. After her retirement she lived in the country and enjoyed hours of walking and praising God for the beauty He created for us to enjoy. These excursions gave her much material for her writing. She feels it is only fitting that these last years she has should be dedicated to writing poems and gratefully praising Him for His goodness through her lifetime. Her prayer is that Morning Moments With My Master will be an encouragement to all who read. Fern Hanlin Coberly was born in Kanawha County, West Virginia, July 21, 1928.

Law and Liminality in the Bible $50 Liminal moments in biblical narrative are moments of transition and change, which are typically fraught with ambivalence. Such new beginnings enshrine both hope and doubt for the future, as in the account of the rebuilding of life after the Flood (Genesis 9). In this subtle analysis, Stahl observes how frequently one component of these liminal moments is law, offering as it does stability and order in a chaotic world but also resonating with the ambiguities inherent in the narrative history. In the Bible, law as well as narrative is multi-voiced.
