More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This book considers how we can develop a 'seeking and searching faith', rather than wanting 'off the shelf' answers.There are short Bible-based reflections, exploring what it means to be a disciple of Jesus.Looking askance at questions raised along the journey of faith, the material originally appeared in the author's "Baptist Times" column: "Rackley's Reflections".Published in conjunction with the "Baptist Times", it includes material for group discussion.It is suitable for those who enjoy writers such as Brennan Manning ("The Ragamuffin Gospel", "The Importance of Being Foolish"), John Bell, Philip Yancey, Frederick Buechner, and those looking for accessible ways into connecting faith to daily life, as well as readers of John's columns in the "Baptist Times" and listeners of Radio Two's "Wogan Show".It will particularly appeal to men but not exclusively.There are five sections of reflections, revised from the original column as published in the "Baptist Times". Each based around a short Bible passage, under the following headings: a yearning faith; a gospel place; gospel encounters; faith companions; and praying the gospel.
