This book is a fitting reminder of what's truly important in life and what truly gives me lasting happiness and joy. This would make a good group study book, including its discussion guide. ( ) A thoughtful, well-written look at the Beatitudes, from Matthew's Gospel. Peppered with relevant anecdotes and Scripture references, the author takes the view that the 'Blessed....' statements are connected, referring to a person's spiritual journey as they acknowledge their poverty of spirit, mourn for their pride, and so on. I was surprised how much I liked this book, reading just one or two chapters a day for just under two weeks. There's a clear Christian message, but the author manages to keep it quite low-key without being too pushy. Definitely recommended. Longer review here: http://suesbookreviews.blogspot.com/2020/08/the-applause-of-heaven-by-max-lucado... Delight is the dozing wedding guests who drank the wine that had been water. Delight is Jesus walking through waves as casually as you walk through cur- tains. ... is the day's wage paid to workers who had worked only one hour . . . the father scrubbing the pig smell off his son's back . . . the shepherd throwing a party because the sheep was found. ... It's what you'd always dreamed but never expected. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
It comes from God and it is within your reach ... The applause of heaven. A joy that can't be quenched? A peace that can't be broken? A happiness that can't be threatened? There is such a joy. It is a sacred delight, a holy gladness. You can't open your Bible without reading about it. You can't live a truly satisfying life without it. And it's nearer than you think. Jesus describes that sacred delight in the astonishing mountain message we now call the Beatitudes. And Max Lucado, in this classic exploration of enduring joy, shows you how this familiar but revolutionary prescription for living can bless your life beyond your wildest imagining. Imagine God doing what gods would do only in your wildest dreams -- wearing diapers, riding donkeys, washing feet, dozing in storms -- dying for you mistakes. Imagine having God as your pinch-hitter, you lawyer, your dad, you biggest fan, and you best friend. Imagine having the King of kings in your cheering section and hearing the applause of heaven ring out ... just for you. But don't just imagine it. Open your heart to it -- the heavenly joy of knowing the God who delights in you. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
