London, Ontario, February 20, 2008: “Come to Me”, a new book by Canadian Christian author Laura Davis, is a unique novel that sees the life of Christ through the eyes of his mother.
Ms. Davis saw the need to bring Jesus into the forefront of Christian novels in a way that would appeal not only to Christians but also to those who are seeking God. “We forget the fact that Jesus was human and God and the people in the Bible were real people with everyday issues and problems like we have today. So, I felt led to write about Jesus humanity in a novel form.”
Carol Roch of London Youth for Christ, comments: “This well written first novel by Laura Davis, gives the reader a fascinating and fresh glimpse into the life story of Christ, weaving His humanity and divinity into a very readable and enjoyable story. Based on bible truth and told with warmth and insight, it helps us identify with Jesus' family and especially with Him - the One who says to all people, "Come to Me". An encouraging book for a new believer or a seasoned Christian.”
By seeing the life of Christ through the eyes of His mother and using the Bible as her main source of information, Ms. Davis has weaved a heartwarming tale that takes the reader on a journey of Christ’s birth, childhood, ministry, death and resurrection. As one reader put it: “It was just like being there and witnessing the life of Jesus without the restrictive prose of the Bible.”
Come to Me is available through the publisher at http://www.Lulu.com/content/1437412, as well as through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and the AuthorsDen Bookstore. It is also available at The Upper Room Bookstore and Creation Bookstore in London, Ontario, Canada.
