Download or read book Christianity s Surprise written by C. Kavin Rowe and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At its beginning Christianity was surprising, powerful, creative, world-shaking. Today in the West it is many times familiar, common, and expected, losing its power to surprise and transform. We have developed societal amnesia and ignorance of what Christianity originally was – and what it still can be. We need to recover the surprise of Christianity. We need to ask the same fundamental questions as the early Christians, which will help us rediscover the surprising power of Christianity in our midst. Focusing on the surprise of the gospel message takes us into the heart of what it is to understand Christianity at all, and thus what it is to remember and relearn the life-giving power and witness that went with being Christian at the beginning. This remembering and relearning can, in turn, surprise us all over again and chart a course for our witness today.

Download or read book Sometimes a Light Surprises written by Jamie L Turner and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sometimes a light is the blinding road-to-Damascus kind, but more often it's a faint glimmer far away but growing steadily brighter." Ben Buckley orders his days the same way he runs his business-carefully structured, compartmentalized, and closely guarded. An unsolved murder from twenty years earlier has cast a dark shadow of anger, guilt, and brokenness over his private life, obscuring any dreams of recovery. For years Ben has distracted himself with the study of word origins, but after the arrival of a new employee, he gradually starts to realize the simple, important words he has left unspoken. Now he must decide whether he has the courage to try to reclaim his family. From a review on the Book Report Network (2006), author and editor Marcia Ford wrote: "Turner's writing is often so elegant, so detailed and so richly textured that her books have distinguished themselves in a category all their own."
