Description

<p>A Jewish woman’s unconventional quest to find Jesus in modern Israel<br /><br />With candor and an intimate knowledge of the Land and its people, Bobbie Ann Cole takes you on some intriguing time travel, such as to the ceremonial slaughtering of Passover lambs in the nearby temple as Jesus died on the cross.<br />Her moving and compellingly-written personal story of making Aliyah to Israel with her husband, Butch effectively interweaves Israel’s ancient and modern history with biblical references. She reveals the challenges that have faced Jewish believers from Peter and Paul on down to the present day, including her own. The underlying antagonism of her beloved Israel towards Messianic Jews leaves her sneaking around, keeping her true identity secret.<br />A blend of memoir, travelogue, historical document and investigative journalism, Love Triangles<br />is not about theological principals; it's about love.<br />Discover:<br />• How Jesus used Jewish festivals to underscore His message.<br />• The story of Jesus’ Bar Mitzvah.<br />• Why Jewish atheists may move to Israel but not believer Jews.<br />• Why Judaism rejects Jesus as Messiah.</p>

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td style="line-height:150%;" class="v11">Praise from WRITER'S DIGEST for Maureen Meehan Aplin's previous Mary MacIntosh books: <p></p> <p>PANDEMIC PREDATOR: &quot;Wow--good beginning, really jumps into the action. . . a wide-ranging, intriguing book.&quot; </p> <p>SNAKE RIVER SECRET: &quot;The structure of the book reminded me of the old Perry Mason novels, in which the legal staff itself is involved in the case personally. . . . Some very clever manipulation of clues, evidence, and trial procedure makes this a very good mystery.&quot; </p> <p>DYING TO SKI: &quot;(The)dialogues are brisk and realistic. A very intriguing premise. An excellent eye for physical details.&quot; </p> <p>&quot;This book is one of the few gems that you look for when you want a good read. Once you pick this book up, you simply can't put it down. ....&quot; Margaret Lopez Erpenbeck, reviewing Pandemic Predator, a Mary MacIntosh novel. </p></td> <td></td></tr><tr><td colspan="5"><img alt="" src="http://www.freado.com/s.gif" width="2" height="16" /></td></tr></tbody></table>
