This book contains nine stories, written in an entertaining style for the average person but based upon sound theological, historical, and scientific principles drama, adventure, and inspiration all rolled into one. It is not just fantasy or pure fiction. As such, it provides a fresh perspective on understanding the human psyche filling in gaps where people can stumble or fall. Most stories have a Christian perspective, although there is no denominational focus.
The setting for these stories ranges from the ancient Near East to conceptual manifestations of heaven, hell, and alternate realities. Some of the protagonists are well-known, some little-known, and some unknown. The common thread is that they are all involved in the great mystery of life and death.
These are stories that you've probably never heard before, but they are not figments of the author's imagination. They are based on historical records found in religious, but not strictly Biblical sources stories from the apocrypha and pseudepigrapha that did not make it into the Biblical canon. They are derived from rough English translations and then adapted for modern readers in modern parlance. Every story has a "take-away" that fosters reflection, analysis, and further study either alone or in a group setting. Insights that are gleaned from these stories can benefit both the individual and the greater community.
Stories 'beyond the Bible' can be intoxicating wanting to always know more secrets and untold truths. Craving to know "what really happened at ..." and "the rest of the story is ..." are powerful human desires. Whether religious or secular, the craving still exists. The purpose of this book is to address those cravings and instill a greater sense of wonder into the human mystery especially as it relates to God and our ultimate reality.
This is not a book on modern miracle cures or first-hand experiential accounts. There is no shortage of those type books to be found on the shelves. Rather, this book is much more than that delving into deeper mysteries where greater insights can be found. Each story brings with it more than just inspiration it brings faith, hope, wisdom, reverence, and contentment all brought into greater focus making for a more fulfilling personal existence in harmony with God.
