Produktbeschreibung
This book is a result of one of the years of Bible study and discussion at Jupiter First Church. Plowing through the events of the Old Testament David's life, the author began to think how interesting it might be to transfer the personality and life of this biblical character to the modern world. If David were a politician, hoping to become president of the United States, would he still be "the brightest and best"? Would he be able to hold on to his beliefs and ethics in the face of the pleasures and perils of accumulated power? How could the events of his life in biblical days be updated to fit the modern world? This book is the result. The reader acquainted with the Old Testament story will recognize many names and events; to others it will remain primarily the tale of an ambitious young man and his journey.
Autorenporträt
Joan Conning Afman taught art in the Hartford, Ct. School system for seventeen years before retiring to Florida. Always interested in writing, she found the opportunity and encouragement to do so with a group of new friends in the Sunshine State. She likes to add something about art that might be new to the reader in her books, and also introduce interesting locations. Sometimes another interest of hers, situations that include the paranormal, also find their way into her stories. Drivin' Me Crazy incorporates all of these. Joan has four grown children of whom she is inordinately proud, and six beautiful grandchildren. She keeps busy writing, painting and exhibiting her work, and thoroughly enjoys the social and cultural life of south Florida.
