"Bloom shows you with powerful clarity how to weave gospel-priorities through all your work and all your moments." -Ann Voskamp, New York Times best-selling author, One Thousand Gifts "Jon Bloom has an extraordinary gift for mining rare gems hidden in familiar Bible stories and characters. His insights are imaginative, biblical, and practical. Jon prompts readers to see with new eyes, examine their hearts, and face life's challenges with renewed perspective and joy. I enthusiastically recommend Things Not Seen!" -Randy Alcorn, Founder and Director, Eternal Perspective Ministries; author, Heaven, The Treasure Principle, and The Ishbane Conspiracy "I trust a writer who not only sees deeply into the treasures of Scripture, but takes what he sees into his soul, and with it serves his family, church, and friends. Jon Bloom is one of those writers. And one of my treasures is to be one of those friends. We welcome you into this circle of joy." -John Piper, Founder, desiringGod.org; Chancellor, Bethlehem College & Seminary "Jon Bloom unpacks the deepest truths about God in a way that every human can receive. You don't want to miss anything he writes-this book is no exception. Prepare for your faith to expand." -Jennie Allen, Founder and Visionary, IF:Gathering; author, Anything and Restless "The Bible is full of stories not just so we have something to read to our children at night, but to help us understand what it is like to walk with God in a broken world. Jon Boom revives the age-old tradition of using biblically informed fictional additions to creatively retell the Bible's most familiar stories. He also intersperses pastoral insights as a skilled soul physician. This book will stir and encourage your faith." -Adrian Warnock, author, Hope Reborn and Raised with Christ
