Loading ...Read “Divine Embrace”
While I was in Canada for the Holidays, I was blessed to accomplish some reading. The “Divine Embrace” was not a planned read, because I was going to spend most of the time on hockey books. But I brought this book along “case in just”. Thankfully I did. This is one of the best Christian books I have ever read. For those of you who read this blog, you know I read a lot. This book dealt with the topic of spirituality in a highly Biblical way. It roots spirituality in the narrative of the God story. Unlike many modern expressions that are centered in self, this spirituality is centered in the story of God. It gives a great overview of the various expressions through the ages of Christianity. This section was extremely interesting. The author continues by fleshing out the practice of spirituality. One of the strongest points of the book is his emphasis on baptism. The book is deep, but readable. It has a spirituality that is highly rooted in the Biblical text. If you are looking for a wonderful book on spirituality and the various expressions of this discipline, this is the book for you. I highly recommend it to Christians that desire to grow stronger in their relationship with God.

“deeply rooted.” Is that mean what you are? This was my favorite section. Every sentence needs a subject, otherwise they’re sad. There were many orphaned sentences in this post.
Sorry about this, thank you for pointing it out.
Matt, You have made me want to read this book. The sentences may have been orphaned but the message came across in a clear way. Did I end that sentence correctly?
Beats me Sonny, but I completely understand what you are saying.
I am on my way out the door to look for this book. The grammer looked fine to me, but then, I was schooled in Texas….
Happy New Year!
