Sweet!


Just starting a new book. If Leonard Sweet is as good as writer as he is speaker, I'm in for a real treat. The book is entitled, "Out Of The Question and Into The Mystery". On the jacket he writes:
Christianity isn't founded on a proposition. God sent Jesus to deliver a proposal: "Will you love me? Will you let me love you?"
In fact, Jesus not only got down on his knees to deliver this proposal. He was nailed to a cross to deliver it. Because of Jesus, we can reach for God himself, not simply for more precise statements about God.
Propositions inform us, but God's proposal of love in Jesus transforms us. God doesn't answer every question; God invites us into a mystery.

Sounds interesting, doesn't it? I'll keep you informed.
