Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen-year-old Dyrus lives with his parents and grandparents in the Persian Empire during the time of Christ's birth, circa 4 BC. He's a shepherd boy, and his father's only dream is for his son to follow in his footsteps. Unfortunately, Dyrus has other dreams. Even while doing his chores as a shepherd, Dyrus's thoughts often turn heavenward. He's impressed with the sky and full of questions about the world around him. But while on a wolf hunt with his father one night, he spots a special star that he's never seen before. Unable to convince his parents of the star's importance, Dyrus becomes frustrated. Until one of the king's wise men and a caravan of soldiers come to camp in the valley where Dyrus lives. They've come to view the star from the mountain near Dyrus's home. Despite his father's insistence that he shouldn't bother the wise man, Dyrus peppers him with questions about the star. Before he knows it Dyrus is caught up in a search to find the meaning of the star and his life is changed forever. Every child knows the nativity story, but what few know is the story behind the wise men. What motivated the wise men to form a caravan and travel hundreds of miles to Jerusalem with only the star as their guide? New author Victor Ammann brings a new twist to provide an answer to these questions in A Shepherd Boy and the Bethlehem Star.

Download or read book The Return written by Victor Ammann and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty-seven-year-old Dyrus is content with his life. He's a royal wise man to Artabanus II, king of Persia. He has a beautiful wife and three spirited sons. If it weren't for the vivid dreams and the strange news coming from Israel, things would be perfect. Unable to shake the feeling that the phenomenon in Israel involves the young child he encountered on his last visit, Dyrus beseeches the king for permission to return to Israel under the accompaniment of his youngest son, Cyrus. Believing the news of the healer to be a matter of national security, the king agrees and sends Dyrus's oldest friend, Captain Kenner, along too. What began as a young shepherd boy's astronomical adventure in A Shepherd Boy and the Bethlehem Star is now continued in The Return as a wise man's search for the answer to the questions in his spirit. Everyone knows the crucifixion story, but how was Christ's message spread throughout the world so quickly? Who was the special baby Dyrus encountered on his first trip to Israel? Who is this healer Dyrus continues to hear about? Could the healer and the baby be one in the same? Author Victor Ammann brings a new twist to provide an answer to these questions in The Return.

Download or read book Master Painter written by Jack R. Lundbom and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of people recognize the religious painting know as Head of Christ, of which an estimated five hundred million prints have been sold. Very few, however, know the artist, Warner E. Sallmann. Sallman's lack of notoriety in professional art circles can be explained by the fact that he made little or no attempt to put himself forward as a Chicago or even a Swedish American artist. He had no exhibitions of his works, and his public life consisted largely of appearances before church and community groups to do chalk drawings. More important was his attitude regarding personal fame. Sallman let the Christ he painted be in the foreground, while the artist remained in the background. "The time has come," argues Jack Lundbom, "for a broader public to know the man who stands behind the painting and the other artwork bearing the Sallman signature." Master Painter is a fascinating story of a gifted man with humble beginnings who overcame disappointment, ill health, and personal limitations in order to live out a vision: that his art serve not only for the enjoyment of humankind, but the practical end of instructing persons in the ways of God. Readers who know the art can now know the artist. It is a story eminently worth telling and one a broad public will be interested to know.
