by Candy Porostosky (Author)
After leading a Bible study one summer on the shores of Lake Erie about the events that occurred when Jesus was by water, Candy Porostosky decided to share her teachings, notes, and lessons so that others may also have the opportunity to purify, heal, and give life to their souls.
Within a unique collection of encounters with Jesus by the water tailored for either Bible study groups or as a personal devotional, Porostosky intertwines scriptures with personal observations, based on years of Bible study and prayer. She invites spiritual seekers to spend time reflecting on God's Word and in prayer in order to understand what the Holy Spirit is saying to each of us. Her encounters include the baptism of Jesus, the calling of the disciples, the woman at the well, the parables, and lessons in the storm and by the sea of Tiberius.
Encounters with Jesus by the Water is a refreshing Bible study that shares scriptures and personal observations that encourage believers to grow in their faith, either individually or together with a group.
