Publisher's Synopsis
Our Messianic Age is the true story of a modern-day spiritual awakening that arises from one man's exemplary walk with the Lord. Drawing parallels from the messianic age of Jesus and His first followers, the book narrates the life of a humble pastor who is faithful despite severe hardship, and depicts the impact he has upon six young disciples who learn to follow Jesus and become ministers of the gospel in their own right. The story of their collective "messianic age" unfolds from its setting in a small rural community and its leading church, along with the personalities, events, and occasional humor that occupy it. The key themes of personal faith, discipleship, and evangelism emerge throughout the narrative.
Jerry Lynn Ray, Ph. D., The University of Virginia, is Chair of the Division of Religion and Philosophy at Brewton-Parker College in Mount Vernon, Georgia.
