Every day, we are striving to figure out what we are doing here and how the Bible pertains to our everyday lives. In Gems of Truth, the second book in the Jewels from God’s Word series, Dr. John Mannion explores the Scriptures to pull out “gems of truth” that will help us each day of the year to discover what God intends for each of us personally and how we can help others to grow. Whether you are a counselor or a lay person, each daily devotional offers thoughtful words of wisdom to help you grow in your knowledge of God’s Word this year. With hermeneutics mixed with daily living, the reader will be inclined to dig deeper and uncover their own “gems of truth” as well.

About

Dr. John Mannion has spent most of his life teaching the Bible. He has taught at all levels academically including middle school, high school, undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral levels. He has served on numerous college faculties including Oral Roberts University, Geneva College, Tidewater Bible College, and Bethel College. As an international Bible teacher, John has ministered on five continents in over twenty countries. He is the author of MOTMOT (a 2000 page series of teaching curriculum designed to equip Bible teachers, consisting of 49 courses, covering six major areas of study, totaling 700 hours of teaching material, available in 10 languages, and used domestically and internationally). His ministry has also included the founding of multiple Bible institutes as well as a missions organization, the planting of churches, and a variety of pastoral roles in the local church. He holds the Doctor of Ministry (D.Min.) degree from Reformed Theological Seminary.
John’s greatest blessing is his wife Audrey and their six children and their families. His most loved hobby is anything to do with the “beautiful game,” the game of soccer. John played Division I soccer at the University of Delaware in the early 1980s. He still plays, although at a much slower pace, in his over 55 league in Media, Pennsylvania where he also coaches at a variety of levels most notably being awarded multiple times with the Coach of the Year award for his work with his Varsity High School team. John loves to have fun and, as one of his grandchildren says, joke around. This, perhaps, still goes back to his days as an improvisational comedian in the network television comedy troupe, the L.A. Connection!
