Servants or Friends; Another Look at God

Religious people don't necessarily make good neighbors! Believers tend to become like the God they revere. What kind of neighbors would a friendly God produce--a God who values nothing higher than freedom & individuality, a God who would rather treat his followers not as servants, but as friends? SERVANTS OR FRIENDS? takes another look at the evidence. Is the God of the Bible a friendly person--eager to restore people's dignity & self-respect? This book was based on 135 year-long trips through the Bible in company with thousands of people, young & old. Nothing was overlooked--including the "dark speech," "servant talk," & the most forbidding stories! An experienced man of the people, author Graham Maxwell (Ph.D. University of Chicago) has brought the Bible to life--with a good dose of humor--for his university students, for professionals, children & culturally diverse groups all over the world. SERVANTS OR FRIENDS? is a beautifully illustrated gift edition featuring California artist Susan Kelley. Both hardcover & paperback are on acid free patina matte paper with smyth-sewn binding. The audio-book, 4 cassettes, is read by the author.Maxwell, Graham is the author of 'Servants or Friends; Another Look at God' with ISBN 9781566520010 and ISBN 1566520010.
