About this listen

Have you ever wondered what the Old Testament - especially the Old Testament law - has to do with your Christian life?

You are not alone. Some Christian leaders believe we should cast off the Old Testament now that we have the New. Carmen Joy Imes disagrees.

In this warm, accessible volume, Imes takes listeners back to Sinai, the ancient mountain where Israel met their God, and explains the meaning of events there. She argues that we've misunderstood the command about "taking the Lord's name in vain." Instead, Imes says that this command is about "bearing God's name," a theme that continues throughout the rest of Scripture. Listeners will revisit the story of Israel as they trudge through the wilderness from a grueling past to a promising future. The story of Israel turns out to be our story too, and you'll discover why Sinai still matters as you follow Jesus today.

A free listen and I'm so glad I added it to my library. Very thought provoking. I've ordered Carmen Joy Imes 'Being God's Image'.

Excellent

From Sinai to Revelation, the common thread is revealed very clearly with a theological underpinning that is both insightful and simply put. This is a must read for anyone who is, or aspires to be, a follower of Jesus.
It is read well.
Each chapter ends with a list of useful references to background study.

Who am I? Why am I here? This book answers those questions.
