Grace in Practice by Paul M Zahl

The past month has turned my life up-side-down. First of all my father past away abruptly and unexpectedly. Secondly I've read about grace as the centre of God's intention with creation and human kind. Normally this blog deals with fiction, this book is theology. However, it brings out the qualities I look for in fictional literature; an envigorating language and depths of thought.

A quote may guide you to realize the genius of this book:

We are not born in community, nor do we die in community. We are single, alone. It is the first fact of human existence. Grace must speak to this.
