Sermonettes from the Seashore (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

Coming from this preacher's love of the seashore is a series of sermonettes he heard while walking along some of the world's sandy beaches. Stroll with this man as he shares his insights from days spent on seashores in the counties of Israel, India, Canada, and Australia, as well as the states of Alaska, California, Florida, New Jersey, and Maine. Listen with him as he hears surf and sea sermons, tide and tern tenets, beach and breeze benedictions, and sand and storm sermonettes. Look with him into the face of a coastal nor'easter; watch with him as sea creatures and shoreline birds play together along the sea edge; behold brilliant sunrises and amazing sunsets over distant shores with family and friends; and observe the rising and falling of the great tides, all events along a seashore that inspired these spiritual messages from the Almighty. So take off your shoes; let the sand fill the cracks between your toes; lift your eyes toward the sea; open your ears to the sound of the surf; and ""be still, and know that I am God"" (Ps 46:10). What does God want to say? Barry Blackstone is the pastor of Emmanuel Baptist Church in the seaside city of Ellsworth, Maine. He is the husband of Coleen and the father of Marnie, and the grandfather of Judah and Elena. His joy of writing has lasted for thirty years; this will be his thirteenth book published, and his fourth book in which he has turned common, seemingly ordinary events in his life into a short sermonette.
