Description:The Amish way has captivated the hearts of Americans with their laid-back and simple lifestyle. Hidden behind this seemingly peaceful way of life is something much less desirable—did you know that Amish publicly shun members of their church in the event that anyone violates their rules, or leaves the church? This means that as an Amish child, you must remain Amish and follow all traditional rules and regulations, or you will suffer the consequences of shunning by your family and friends; unable even to enjoy eating an occasional meal with them. Because of this overwhelming and strict shunning, many ex Amish struggle with a feeling of failure, believing that they may well be doomed because of their leaving the Amish culture, their friends, and family. This particular practice of shunning is unbiblical and unfair. Joe Keim, founder of Mission to the Amish People, exposes this practice of the Amish and explains how it all came about. He fairly presents 3 views concerning the shunning, and lets you decide for yourself how Jesus’ teaching reflects a Christian’s relationships with others when they violate the teachings of the Bible. Since the establishment of MAP in February of 2000, Joe and Esther Keim (both formerly Amish) have been doing all they can to further assist the plain Amish folk of our country. Having been Amish gives Joe first-hand experience with the religion, and because of that he and his wife have been a blessing to many Amish people whom have been seeking the Lord in replacement of Amish religion.Three Fold Purpose of MAP• Evangelize and disciple Amish and Former Amish people• Assist older teenagers and young adults who have already left the Amish culture• Expand MAP all over North AmericaWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
