Sermons biblical wisdom for daily living
- "[In this book, the author offers] a collection of forty timeless addresses he has preached in The Memorial Church, Harvard University. In Part One, Seasons, [he] begins with Advent expectations, showing us how at Christmas we can usefully channel our feelings of depression, impatience, and joy; how at Easter - the time of the Resurrection - we can confront our fears of the fear of death and give life a chance, arguing that we don't have to die to live; and how Trinity is a time to see the big picture: the wholeness and unity of God. In Part Two, Themes, [he] focuses on what the scriptures have to say about a range of issues and sensibilities. He speaks of friendship, relationships, and our desire for happiness; suggests that frustration and anxiety can be means for the discovery of spiritual wholeness; and covers such themes as hospitality, patriotism, stewardship, and thanksgiving. With his characteristic eloquence, compassion, and grace, and always sensitive to the needs and anxieties of his listeners, [he also] offers readers the tools they need to understand the wisdom of the Bible and the joy and inspiration it can bring to everyday life.-http://www.bn.com."
