Produktbeschreibung
What if our exhaustion, burnout, and pain are an invitation into a more vibrant faith? Christianity is fighting for its soul. We've enjoyed the benefits of power and privilege for so long that many of us have forgotten the radical way of Jesus. But we have been here before. And there is a way through. Within a few hundred years after the death and resurrection of Jesus, Christianity emerged as the dominant religion of the Roman Empire. Where it once took courage to be a Christian, suddenly it was easy, and the radical way of Jesus was being lost. Toward the end of the fourth century, a group of men and women began to withdraw from the halls of privilege and power into the desert to rediscover the essence of Jesus Christ. The stories and examples of these desert fathers and mothers are recorded for us. And their lives still speak by as they teach us: To embrace the disciplines of solitude, silence, and prayer; To pursue humility, generosity, and unity in rich relationship with others; To develop a keen eye for wisdom; and To lay down our rights for the good of others. > Streams in the Wasteland is for all those who thirst for a better way, the radical way of Jesus amid the desert of our age.

Autorenporträt
Hi friend! My name is Andrew. I'm a pastor in Colorado, an avid runner, and an incurable bibliophile. I'm the author of two books: "All Flame" (September 2020, NavPress), which is a Trinitarian take on the ups and downs of the spiritual journey and features stories of some modern saints that will leave you inspired and hungry for a life of holiness, as well as "Streams in the Wasteland" - a look at what the desert fathers and mothers of the early church can teach us today. I hope you'll snag copies of each!
