The Lives of Remarkable Men and Women of the Bible Portrayed in Highly Enlightening Book -- Christian Writer Takes a New Approach to Bible Reading

JONESBORO, La., June 29, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Is the Bible irrelevant and boring for one's harried and complicated affairs? Author Veda Duff Tohline takes a new and interesting approach to reading the Bible with her enlightening book, Citizens of Time When Judges Ruled.

Tohline invites readers to see the Holy Word in a new light by examining the lives of the notable men and women in the Bible, how they lived and pleased the Lord. At the end of each chapter are reflections on the subject which are specifically geared for modern times.

From this amazing installment, readers will be able to realize that human nature has not changed, only the circumstances in which one lives. Through their stories, readers can also gain insight into what Christians have as a source of wisdom, strength, and confidence-the wisdom and power of a God who cares.

The author has devoted her life to scriptural readings and shares her knowledge of the Word in a way that does not intimidate. Her work is not intended for scholarly reading. Nonetheless, Bible scholars and religion educators can learn from the fresh insights and approach. Citizens of Time When Judges Ruled poses a challenge to all Christians to live a life according to the path of the Lord especially during troubled times.
