Mary Ruth Whitley's Newly Released "AIM to Be Like Jesus" is a Unique Take on the Bible as a Tool of Becoming the Person Jesus Wants His People to Be
"AIM to Be Like Jesus" from Christian Faith Publishing author Mary Ruth Whitley is a thought-provoking way of viewing Bible characters and biblical stories as a guide to achieving a more God-centered life through the Lord's own teachings that resonate behind each Attitude, Instruction, and Meditation.
MEADVILLE, Pa., April 02, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "AIM to Be Like Jesus": an inspirational look on the Scriptures as a way to manifest the greatest qualities of a Christian heart. "AIM to Be Like Jesus" is the creation of published author Mary Ruth Whitley. She was a high school teacher for thirty-eight years before retiring, and finds pleasure in reading, studying, and writing about the truths found in Scripture.
Whitley shares, "The Bible is God's description of His creation from the beginning of time to the end of time. Amid all the pages, of wonder and mystery, are people like you and me. AIM to Be Like Jesus describes the thread God has woven around human lives—a thread by which He calls out to mankind. His words are simply, 'Here I am! I stand by the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me' (Revelation 3:20). While writing the book The BE Attitudes for Christians, I very clearly observed the many characters, whose lives God has given us as examples. It was these characters who inspired me to write my next book, AIM to Be Like Jesus. There were many characters I could have chosen, but I chose people who, in my opinion, portrayed a unique quality. These Bible characters have human attitudes that they purposely chose to use for God. This book begins with Abel, who was considered righteous because of his pleasing sacrifice to God. It ends with Jesus, who was righteous, perfect, and was used as the final sinless sacrifice for mankind. The acronym 'AIM' is to help the reader focus on the attitude to be developed, instruction about the characters, and meditation on Scripture about the characters. When characters in the Bible come alive, I often wonder, 'Could I be like that?'"
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Mary Ruth Whitley's new book is a powerful and motivating compendium bound with Biblical tales and excerpts that models anyone to be a living modern-day Samuel or Ezekiel.
