I Said I'd Be Back

Description
As I started this book, Easter has just passed, the usual sermons offered, the resurrection of Jesus suddenly took on a new life (no pun intended): I wrote a small book on the crucifixion last year, and felt the need to write this one too, not so much as a follow up, for they are naturally very much interlinked - but if Jesus never died there would be no resurrection; no resurrection, Jesus' living or dying would be irrelevant. As with all my books I offer much of the 'usual/expected' material for the subject in hand, alongside which I delve into some of the questions that others may have wanted to ask, but felt they couldn't, or even shouldn't. The whole of our Christian life, and the whole of the scriptures must be relevant to us, otherwise what's the point of paying any attention to them? It needs to be as real as when the disciples first heard the message, and should excite us just as much. No, we were not 'there', no we did not hear or see what the disciples did, but the Bible should come alive to us every time we read or hear it. Something, somewhere should create a spark in our thinking and thus change our living: how this spark manifests itself will be different for every individual - when I get that spark it usually makes me want to write, which usually means a book rather than a few notes. I find it amazing that the Bible is the same Bible as I have read many times before, but every time I delve into it, I see something different - a different thought, a different angle. I rarely ever read a book twice, but not so with the Bible. I have never been woken at 5am or some other silly-o-clock time because of a fresh thought about a book I had read; but I do so on a regular basis after a sermon I have heard, or a Bible passage I read during the day. My wife gets concerned that I spend too much time on my writing; I will get concerned when my drive to do so wanes.
