Light for our Path 2013
Author: Kate Hughes
Publisher: eBook Partnership
ISBN: 1905893663
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
The Bible is not an easy book to get into, although it is infinitely rewarding if you make the effort. But where to start? More experienced readers can help you to explore, and Light for our Path is an ideal way to begin regular Bible reading. The daily notes introduce you to some of the biblical books as a whole, but they also cover a variety of themes, showing how the Old and New Testaments read together can reveal the depth, richness and relevance of the Bible for today's world. This is not a book of technical Bible study; rather, writers from all over the world and from many different churches help you to meditate on the word of God and see how it bears on your own life.Among the books studied this year are: readings in Luke (the lectionary gospel for the year), Questions in Job, Navigating Numbers, Hosea, Isaiah 56-66 and Acts 6-12, plus a wide range of interesting themes, including: Living differently, Through Lent and Passiontide in poetry, Fire, Mountains and valleys, Paul for today, Contested sites, Mothers and Facing death.

Where the Light Fell
Author: Philip Yancey
Publisher: Convergent Books
ISBN: 0593238524
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
In this searing meditation on the bonds of family and the allure of extremist faith, one of today’s most celebrated Christian writers recounts his unexpected journey from a strict fundamentalist upbringing to a life of compassion and grace—a revelatory memoir that “invites comparison to Hillbilly Elegy” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). “Searing, heartrending . . . This stunning tale reminds us that the only way to keep living is to ask God for the impossible: love, forgiveness, and hope.”—Kate Bowler, New York Times bestselling author of Everything Happens for a Reason Raised by an impoverished widow who earned room and board as a Bible teacher in 1950s Atlanta, Philip Yancey and his brother, Marshall, found ways to venture out beyond the confines of their eight-foot-wide trailer. But when Yancey was in college, he uncovered a shocking secret about his father’s death—a secret that began to illuminate the motivations that drove his mother to extreme, often hostile religious convictions and a belief that her sons had been ordained for a divine cause. Searching for answers, Yancey dives into his family origins, taking us on an evocative journey from the backwoods of the Bible Belt to the bustling streets of Philadelphia; from trailer parks to church sanctuaries; from family oddballs to fire-and-brimstone preachers and childhood awakenings through nature, music, and literature. In time, the weight of religious and family pressure sent both sons on opposite paths—one toward healing from the impact of what he calls a “toxic faith,” the other into a self-destructive spiral. Where the Light Fell is a gripping family narrative set against a turbulent time in post–World War II America, shaped by the collision of Southern fundamentalism with the mounting pressures of the civil rights movement and Sixties-era forces of social change. In piecing together his fragmented personal history and his search for redemption, Yancey gives testament to the enduring power of our hunger for truth and the possibility of faith rooted in grace instead of fear. “I truly believe this is the one book I was put on earth to write,” says Yancey. “So many of the strands from my childhood—racial hostility, political division, culture wars—have resurfaced in modern form. Looking back points me forward.”
