Where is God in today's world? No matter where you are in your faith or your life, And So It Is gives you an opportunity to develop and strengthen your relationship with God through the relevance of Scripture, as it applies to everyday experiences. The daily devotionals presented inside capture in a few words a topic for reflection and meditation that allows you the opportunity to discover God within your own life circumstances. You will be taken through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation as each day highlights a verse for contemplation. Through the words of Sheri Sutton, you will see that: God exists in all things God is always faithful God's love is forever Since God is found in the ordinary as well as the extraordinary, And So It Is can help you find God's presence in the everyday activities of your life. "Conversationally-as if over a cup of morning coffee-Sheri Sutton reminds readers of the nearness of God, helping to open minds and hearts to His powerful, loving presence in our day-to-day lives." -Marjorie Hodgson Parker, author of Shaken to the Core (and Finding God's Strength)
Into Kurdistan is a journey through the lives of a people without a country. Part travelogue and part political commentary, it portrays both the pride and the oppression of the Kurdish people. Sheri Laizer recounts the drama of a family living close to the border, hearing gunshots and wondering if a favoured son will make it home at night. She shares the companionship of Kurdish women in the mountains, washing in the melted snow. She captures the ambiguity of Kurdish intellectuals entwined in the cultural life of Turkey, a country which refuses to acknowledge the very existence of Kurdish identity. And she paints a vivid picture of the centuries of tradition behind the people who have given the Middle East some of its greatest heroes, from Saladin onwards. Into Kurdistan uncovers the recent atrocities in Iraq, and the systematic persecution suffered by the Kurds in Turkey. In a marvellous blend of political commentary, folktale and sympathetic observation, Sheri Laizer helps us understand the people behind the headlines.
