About the Book
In an examination presented in verse, Bible Stories and Contemporary Times in Poetic Lines focuses on the connection between biblical stories and our modern lives. The rainbow on the cover represents biblical stories as a whole, while the computer symbolizes the modern times in which we live. Whether the subject is ancient or modern times, however, human nature and behavior have not changed very much; the lessons in the Bible are as vitally important to everyday life now as they were when they were first written. Including both beloved Bible stories and contemporary topics as told in poetry, this collection seeks to enable readers to improve their understanding of key Bible passages and to increase their biblical knowledge. Reflect on both the ancient and the modern with this unique compilation of verse.
