Inhaltsangabe

Many find the Old Testament difficult to understand with its ancient culture, strange rituals and customs, and primitive views of God. Tuck examines the literary and historical nature of the biblical passages he discusses and shows how these accounts of real people, with their strengths and weaknesses, address our contemporary world with lessons that provide genuine guidance for meaningful living. In his reflections on sixteen Old Testament characters, Tuck strives to show how their lives connect with and guide us today. These stories reflect the many ways God quietly works in the lives of individuals, and they challenge us to remain responsive to the divine presence today.

William Powell Tuck, a native of Virginia, has served as a pastor in Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Louisiana, and as a seminary professor, adjunct college professor, and an intentional interim pastor. He is the author of more than forty books including The Difficult Sayings of Jesus and Star Thrower: A Pastor’s Handbook. He was awarded an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree from the University of Richmond. In 1997 he received the Pastor of the Year award from the Academy of Parish Clergy, and in 2016 received the Wayne Oates Award from the Oates Institute in Louisville, Kentucky. He and his wife, Emily, are the parents of two children and five grandchildren and live in Richmond, Virginia.
