In A Mirror is a thought-provoking introduction to God’s salvation, reflecting on the the epic story that has evoked many mythologies about good and evil portrayed in the story of Adam and Eve, and ending with the redemption and resurrection of Jesus Christ. By a more concise account to the principles of salvation, the book lays the foundation to the elements of destiny, desire, knowledge, shame, sin, the cross, death, power, prayer, praise, justice, truth, faith, joy, righteousness, and the Holy Spirit, on which a life in Jesus Christ is attained. Drawing parallels from Jesus Christ’s life, the book argues the distinctive Godly signatures that have outlaid His divine plan, paramount in His powerful ministry on earth, which continued with Christ’s crucifixion to save those whom He loves, rectifying the sin that began with Adam and Eve. In A Mirror is an invitation to reconsider a relationship with God based on the unshakable truth of Jesus Christ, and not on any other fleeting images.
“In A Mirror is an outcome of the author’s years of
searching to find God . . . I recommend it to other
readers, hoping it will give some new light—a unique reflection of
a life—looking through the mirror of Christ.”
—Saad Khilla, Retired Seventh-Day Adventist Minister
“In A Mirror is an autobiography of Raed’s life after years
of self-doubt and disbelief, and finally to a realization of God
. . . the book expresses the undeniable evidence to the
presence and existence of God and our reflections in the mirror of
His words.”
—Hany Yacoub, Seventh-Day Adventist Deacon
Born to a Seventh-Day Adventist minister, Raed is a
third-generation, born again Christian. Raed earned his graduate
education from Bentley University and George Washington University,
where he studied business and engineering, respectively; his
undergraduate degree is from New York University where he studied
information systems. Raed discovered his love of writing during his
personal Bible study time, heeding to God’s revelation in his life
after many years outside of the church, where his soul searching
expeditions led him back to the core question about the purpose of
life, most profoundly in the story of the cross of Jesus Christ,
and his boundless measures in demonstrating God’s love, the very
purpose that has inspired In A Mirror. Raed believes Jesus
Christ’s return will bring hope to many who admonish their earthly
strife by something more meaningful, attuning to a much greater
voice outside of our human means. Grateful to the mighty work of
God’s hands in his life, Raed is thankful to many Christians who
have inspired him throughout his life, including his family, his
praise and worship ministry teams, and the many others whose lives
have brought this book into fruition. It is Raed’s aspiration that
the words of this book would be a source of blessings and hope to
its readers, and a beginning of more testimonies about the power of
the word of God and the salvation of Jesus Christ.
