5.0 out of 5 stars Draws one into the Mystery of the Gospel, 16 May 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging (Paperback)
After years of having evangelical education crammed into my head, Abba's Child is a book which challenges what I say I know and believe. Manning's honesty about the terrible sin problem all born-again sinners are acquainted with rings true to the Apostle Paul's lament "the things I wish to do, I do not (and vice versa)". But, instead of talking us out of our bad feelings about our condition, Manning challenges us to begin the journey of intimacy with the God Paul also teaches us is named Abba. Far from the typical modern Christian books which skim the surface of the human experience, Abba's Child is a primer for those who quietly realize that the Christian faith is much more than a call to a system of belief of Absolute Truths-----and that it is a call to the most important Relationship of our lives, that with our utterly "Other" God. Evangelical friends who presently are teaching, studying and ministering at Yale and Cambridge (UK) have thanked me over and over for giving them this book, both saying they must read it over and over----a life changing book! If you are squeamish in thinking God the Father's name is "Daddy", and that he longs for you to address and know him as such, this book probably will make you uncomfortable. If you have arrived at the exhaustion of modernity in the American evangelical experience, this book will remind you that the Gospel is a relationship, not a "plan of salvation" to know, memorize and regurgitate. Great reading for worn-out evangelicals!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Heartbeat of the Gospel!!, 16 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging (Paperback)
I read Abba's Child in 1993 and I can't remember honestly any other version of the Gospel prior to this discovery. What it did for me was restore the eternal sense of childhood to my soul that I had somehow lost in all my years as a perpetual failure at trying to live up to the "doctrines of men". I sent a copy to my sister in Arkansas and I wrote in the cover "for the Prodigal who returned it was the Robe, Sandals and the Family Ring". I have thanked Brennan till he is probably sick of hearing it. Thank you seems inadequate for such pure treasure as this. I will be grateful to Brennan till I'm dead and then after that, we'll all be in the land of Children anyway. That land where we will all simply be nothing more than "Abba's Child". As important as the Ragamuffin Gospel. An absolute must read.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most moving books about grace..., 18 Sep 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging (Paperback)
Brennan Manning is a thelogian who cuts through modern-day theologic mumbo-jumbo to the naked Truth of the Gospel...that God loves us desperately and that the knowledge of His unrelenting grace is life changing and life shattering. If someone asked me how to find God, I would hand them a copy of the New Testament and a copy of Abba's Child.
