Notable for the quote comparing Christ to a spastic child, which is often taken out of context by evangelicals and used to beat Rowan Williams around the head with as if he was some sort of spastic child. ( ) Picked it up from a library shelf because I was bored and ended out reading half of it standing there. Went back and read the rest of. No wonder he is Archbishop of Canterbury! Readable but clearly learned. Covers a wide variety of contemporary issues and includes a great bit of spiritual direction. Would recommend for multiple levels of reading. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Rowan Williams is the Archbishop of Canterbury. In this collection of pastoral sermons and addresses, Williams shows how the faith of the creeds can still equip Christians for a vigorous and critical engagement with the world of today. In his often poetic, sometimes scholarly, and always thoughtful and engaging style, Williams reflects with wisdom and empathy on the gospel connections to issues of peace, war, justice, sexuality, wholeness, suffering, loneliness, vocation, and mission. Sermons from the church year and practical matters of Christian spirituality such as intercessory prayer and Bible study are also included; still others celebrate great Christian figures across the centuries, from the Anglo-Saxon saints to Michael Ramsey and T. S. Eliot. Also, published for the first time are Williams's addresses on Mission and Spirituality delivered at Yale in 1991, a sharp but sympathetic perspective on evangelism in the church today.
