The message of It’s Time: Letters to the Bride of Christ at the End of the Age continues to grow in my heart every day. As I watch world events unfold and listen to the breath of the Spirit, my heart is captured by his passion to bring his bride into the fullness of her splendor. I enjoy the conversations I get into with people who are reading it, and how it is inviting hearts closer to him as well. In the New Year, I am planning on hosting a book discussion group via Zoom to explore its themes further with those who are interested. Also, on February 21, I’ve been invited to do a day-long workshop on the themes of It’s Time in Bradenton, FL, if you live nearby or want to fly in. We’ll get details out in the near future.
It really is time for the sons and daughters to be revealed on the earth. I’m excited to see how that takes place because I’m sure it will be far grander than I could anticipate.
I’m also excited to announce that It’s Time has made its way to Germany. My publisher there, Glory World Medien, has just released the German translation of this book. You can find it at their bookshop: Wayne Jacobsen, Es ist Zeit! or at Amazon: https://www.amazon.de/Es-ist-Zeit-Briefe-Zeitalters/dp/3955786595. They have many of my other books as well.
Finally, let me share how two people are finding a way to pass this message on to others in their orbit.
Mike:
I really enjoyed It’s Time. It felt like a summation of numerous conversations and podcasts over the last few years. Seriously lightens my heart and puts life in the proper perspective.
- “The time of his coming may be at hand; the time for us to reveal his love definitely is.”
- “I am convinced we live in the moments before the dawn. Certainly, darkness seems to rule everywhere we look, but for those with eyes to see, the skies have already begun to brighten ever so slightly on the Eastern horizon.”
That is a beautiful word picture to end an excellent read. That image makes my heart leap, like grass springing up through concrete. It is inevitable!
I sent those last few lines to quite a few friends. They absolutely loved it. I’m going to be ordering a few books for gifts soon. Yes, an uplifting read—sanity in the midst of religious, Christian, fearful, ignorance.
Rod (Australia):
We joined you on the Israel Tour, and both routinely recall with great fondness that trip. We have not felt comfortable returning to the institutional church and have basically had quite a few years of ‘inactivity’ with other Christians apart from a pure social context. For a long time, we were concerned that if we had a home church/meeting, people would be tempted to do things the way we had always and we were well beyond being interested in that. Personally, I wanted to explore what being a Christian over 70 years old meant and offered. Then you released It’s Time, and Jill thought that would be a good guide for us to meet and discuss it with our over-70s friend
So, eight of us have been meeting every fortnight or so to chat about a chapter of It’s Time and just completed week 6 yesterday. What a pleasure to have your thoughts on our faith and walk with the Lord as a catalyst for discussion on various topics. Having been involved in many, many small group meetings over the years, I don’t think there has been one where everyone participates the way they do when discussing It’s Time. We can’t believe how now every single person has entered, shared their perspective, even the traditionally quiet ones. What a joy! What an encouragement to hear how each other thinks about the Lord, our faith, and our later years of life on that journey. We look forward to how the Lord reveals our lives in Him as ‘70+ers. We are convinced there is so much more to find as we age.
And before I go, don’t forget, Lifestream is offering a 25% discount on all books ordered from our store through Christmas. All you need to do is enter CHRISTMAS25 as the promo code when you check out. There are lots of books there that might make great Christmas gifts for your friends and family, including a devotional, Live Loved Free Full, and a coffee table book, A Man Like No Other, to help unpack Jesus from the religious distortions that 2000 years have put on him. Of course, all of Wayne’s other books are there as well. You can see them pictured below.
Unfortunately, we don’t sell It’s Time there because we do not print them here. It has to be ordered from Amazon, or in the U.K., it is now available from Waterstones.
