Searching for Home (eBook, ePUB)

Spirituality for Restless Souls

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Deep down it's easy to believe that the better job, the nicer house, or the more dynamic church will finally make us feel at home. In Searching for Home, M. Craig Barnes challenges this belief. He reminds us that paradise is lost and we can't go home again. Our great comfort and hope, however, is that we are never lost to God. Seasoned by more than twenty years as a pastor, Barnes discusses the importance of confession, worship, and grace in our search for home. He offers advice about how we can move from being transient nomads too frightened to be grateful to pilgrims who are at home with God, guided by our pleasure in him. This book was written for both Christians and seekers who are still looking for a sense of belonging or home. It will be a useful tool for pastors, adult Sunday school groups, and counselors of all kinds who are advising pilgrims along the way.
