We know about the chief priests and the scribes he argued with, some of whom converted. We've heard about the many people he healed, the lepers he cleansed, the blind whose sight he restored. We've even read about the adulterers and divorcees he encountered and led to salvation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut what about the other people on the fringes of society? What about the drunks and deviants who experienced Jesus? What about the outcasts, the criminals, the sex workers, the LGBTQ persons? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat about the guy who is hungover at the synagogue? What about the wayward Jew, or the unbelieving Gentile heathen? Didn't they also come to believe, as they experienced Jesus? Aren't the motley crew from the wild side of Jerusalem also Christ's followers?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This is their story of encounter, love, and mercy. It is a story of Jesus meeting us where we are, no matter where that is. Their story is a meditation from the margins, told as only they can tell it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 202\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.46 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42721253818431,"sku":"9798218148621","price":20.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/99b02ef77b88140ffa51f8379c629f29.webp?v=1765091717","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/malchus-and-me-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
