Listening For God:
Contemporary Literature And The Life Of Faith, Vol. 1
Where do you listen for God?
Each volume of Listening for God includes excerpts
from the works of eight contemporary authors, supplemented by
author profiles and reflection questions.
Listening for God is a resource intended to help readers
investigate how life and faith merge in surprising ways and
places. Contemporary American literature may not be the most
predictable place to listen for God, but it may well turn out
to be among the most rewarding.
