Satan threw up roadblocks that never seemed to work.
Future apostles Andrew was always bringing in outsiders,
Philip insisted on proof and Nathaniel was naive.
The temple merchants lived off religion,
Nicodemus tried to reform religion, and Peter’s mother-in-law dwelt in her religion.
The pagan Samaritan searched with hope, the royal official probed with fortitude,
The centurion encountered with power.

IN PRAISE OF DREAM MAKER
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book though it took me a few pages to get used to Haddad’s style of writing. It was different for me. The style and the arrangement of content. This book is a collection of stories about characters who Jesus met during His earthly ministry. Each story is a fleshed out version of what might have been based on the record we have in Scripture. Fleshed out in a way that adds personality and cultural flavor to each of the characters.
.
The author does a masterful job of bringing the characters to life. You will feel their pain, weep at their sorrow and joy, and yearn with them in their hopeful struggle to overcome. You will follow each character’s story as it develops along the timeline of Jesus’ sojourn on earth. Then, return back along that timeline to experience the life-changing events in the life of another character.
.
Which characters? The apostles, Jesus’ family and close friends and those He encounters along the way, some of whom He touched miraculously, dramatically changing their lives and reshaping their souls and their dreams for eternity. Dream Maker is a must-read.
