The world’s largest bookfair, Frankfurter Buchmesse, opened its doors last October 16-20, 2024, in Frankfurt, Germany. For worldwide business and trading, it is regarded as the most significant book fair on earth. More than 4,300 exhibitors and an expected 114,000 trade visitors from 131 countries, welcoming rights professionals from a total of 355 agencies and publishers make the Frankfurt Book Fair a place of endless discoveries. On the stages we experienced exciting international voices.
As the Frankfurter Buchmesse celebrates its anniversary for another year of serving the industry, Citi of Books did not miss the chance to join the 76th Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse) in Frankfurt, Germany. This spectacular gathering honors fascinating works and their creators.
With a series of activities prepared, one of the most anticipated this year is the chosen country to be the guest of honor, which is Italy. The country will present not just its diverse, unique qualities as an attractive place to travel but also as a country with a rich literary tradition.
Citi of Books is excited to present books written by our distinguished authors. In our assigned booth, a range of books—from fiction to nonfiction—would be on exhibit. A book included in the gallery was “Living God’s Life” by W.J. Caywood.
W.J. Caywood is a native of Arizona, a graduate of the University of Arizona with a BA in Religious Studies (2000), and a graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary with an MDIV (2008). He serves as a campus minister with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship (IVCF) in the division of Graduate and Faculty Ministry (GFM).
“Living God’s Life” is a study and reflection on 2 Peter’s epistle, with a focus on how Christians might apply the messages, ideas, and exhortations of this New Testament letter in today’s changing world.
We live in an era when the divide between the perception of the Gospel truth and the experience of the Gospel truth for Christian people (to say nothing about others) is more tenuous than prior generations. Evidence of this tension can be readily observed and felt in what Christians report about themselves and how they are responding to the quickening shifts in society and Western culture. We need to, once again, find the path to be grounded in the truth as revealed in the Person of Jesus the Messiah. In him, we can learn experientially about God, the holiness of life, and the practice of God’s righteousness together in the community in order to be faithful witnesses in this generation.
