FAITH NEWS SERVICE – In The World of the Word, author J. Daniel Fennell takes his readers on an eyewitness journey across the Ancient Near East and Mediterranean lands where the biblical story was born.

Beginning in the land of Moab in modern Jordan, the pathos and promise of God’s Old and New Testament peoples’ faith comes alive in readers as they discover how real history and redemptive hope merge.

Walking with Israel through the wilderness to Canaan; following Jesus and his disciples from Capernaum to Jerusalem; and partnering with Paul on his Mediterranean mission – in this book the historical reality of the biblical story unfolds before your eyes, inviting you on a journey to discover fellowship, adventure and joy in following Jesus.

A former missionary to Indonesia and a ten-year traveller and teacher in bible lands, if there’s one thing author Daniel Fennell understands it is the need for those who courageously follow Jesus to rediscover confidence in the historical truth of God’s word and experience its transforming power.

Daniel writes for believers and seekers alike who are searching for meaning through a faith encounter with Jesus by reading the Bible.

In his powerful book, devout pilgrims and curious seekers alike are helped to reconnect Christian faith to its historical foundations as the reality of the biblical story unfolds before their eyes.
