false 1633081 2 There was something different about the young carpenter who came to build a door for Master Eli. Jeshua bar Joseph of Nazareth was a simple, devout man who required little for himself. He worked diligently and was always fair with the price he asked for his labor. He respected all whom he encountered and spoke with a wisdom well beyond his years and station. With each passing day, this young man who had little formal education came to teach many. His words made people look to the heavens with fresh eyes and to their own actions with greater clarity. What did the people of Galilee make of this enigmatic character? Could they have known that this unassuming, soft-spoken carpenter would one day change the world? The parables are some of the most influential and well-known stories in history, and in <i>The Welcoming Door</i> Kenny Kemp illuminates these timeless tales with an entirely new approach. With a style as simple and elegant as the parables themselves, Kenny Kemp reintroduces these celebrated stories, setting them as the formative experiences of the young man Jeshua bar Joseph, whom we know today as Jesus of Nazareth. Jeshua, an unassuming young carpenter from Nazareth, lives his life like everyone else. He learns from his own experiences, the traditions of his people, and by inspiration of God. He soon proves to be a man of courage and integrity, a hard worker, a devoted son. And so with each story, each life-altering moment, we watch Jeshua become a leader of men. With rich and subtle detail, <i>The Welcoming Door</i> takes us inside the hearts and minds of the people of Galilee as we witness the Gospel in action. 1627273 1 10 2002 THE WELCOMING DOOR: Parables of the Carpenter total:6|5:3|4:3| 6 27 20 4 4 0 false false Fri May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 10:10:53 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 10:11:48 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Mar 26 07:10:01 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 26 11:21:28 -0700 2008 5 0 true false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Wed Feb 06 11:55:46 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 06 11:59:04 -0800 2008 4 0 true true Sun Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sun Feb 17 14:24:06 -0800 2008 Sun Feb 17 14:25:01 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Nov 01 20:35:18 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 01 20:35:18 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Oct 14 13:50:44 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 14 13:50:44 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jul 25 15:30:41 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 25 15:30:41 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu May 21 08:01:38 -0700 2009 Thu May 21 08:01:38 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Apr 29 00:43:03 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 29 00:43:03 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Feb 27 07:56:34 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 07:56:34 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Feb 27 07:56:07 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 07:56:07 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat May 10 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Feb 04 09:54:28 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 04 09:54:40 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Oct 20 10:30:49 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 20 10:30:49 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Apr 16 14:53:14 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 16 14:53:18 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Apr 12 14:23:54 -0700 2008 Sat Apr 12 14:23:54 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sun Mar 30 14:17:58 -0700 2008 Sun Mar 30 14:18:17 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Feb 15 04:39:39 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 15 04:39:42 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Tue Oct 16 00:34:16 -0700 2007 Tue Oct 16 00:34:16 -0700 2007 0 0 false false Sat Oct 13 14:03:26 -0700 2007 Thu Nov 22 06:30:58 -0800 2007 5 0 false false Tue Nov 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Tue Aug 21 17:09:36 -0700 2007 Tue Aug 21 17:09:42 -0700 2007
