The short answer is the subtitle of this book—"to repair and renew the world." Jesus continued the tradition of the prophets who came before him as he taught, challenged, energized, and inspired his followers throughout the ages to take up this prophetic vocation in their own lives. In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus spelled out this prophetic vocation for us using seven key concepts: Soul, Spirit, Kingdom, Insight, Forgiveness, Mercy, and Glory. Prof. Chilton devotes a chapter to each of these concepts which show how we can share Jesus' vision and become inspired by him to repair and renew this world. Use this book in your discussion group.

The way of Jesus means that despite our tears and scars, we can become vessels of divine light. A young man loses his wife while their baby escapes without injury. In abject grief he reaches out to a friend for solace. What words of comfort are even possible? How can Jesus repair and renew these lives in this world? Author Bruce Chilton begins in the everyday. He shows how following Jesus not only repairs shattered lives, but renews them. While no broken life is ever simply reassembled and although there is no magic going back to the pristine, repair and renewal will empower us to truly live and love again. But our path requires something from us--mindful practice of Jesus' teachings about the soul, spirit, kingdom, insight, forgiveness, mercy, and glory. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
