Kingdom, Grace, Judgment: Paradox, Outrage, and Vindication in the Parables of Jesus | Robert Farrar Capon

pick

Kingdom, Grace, Judgment, by Robert Farrar Capon (2002)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: An omnibus edition of the author‘s engaging reflections on the parables of Jesus.

Review: In hindsight I wish I‘d reviewed the three volumes that went into this omnibus edition separately, as each book has its own personality. ⬇️

Mattsbookaday For me the most successful was the first volume, on the Parables of the Kingdom; the other two were also excellent, but I found he relied more and more as time went on on colloquial retellings, with less of the insightful analysis I loved in the first volume. Overall, though, this is hard to beat for a one-volume collection of essays on the parables. 1w

In a Special Light | Elroy Bode

“You have to love…You have to feel. It‘s the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart…to be swallowed up. And when…you are broken, betrayed, left, hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree,listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself that you tasted as many as you could.” -LOUISE ERDRICH, The Painted Drum

The above books I lovingly call my Library of Grace
