Lift up your eyes on high and see who created these: He leads out their army and numbers them, calling them all by name. By his great might and the strength of his power not one of them is missing! (ISA 40:26).
A young man of faith who moved into our community is leaving us.
A delightful man who loves the LORD.
I offered to give him some books to aid him in his spiritual journey and widen his Christian theological perspective.
It is my practice to give away my books. it’s not easy to do. Painful actually.
But these fit him and his growth:

The One and the Many by W. Norris Clarke, S.J., University of Notre Dame Press, IN.
The God of Jesus Christ by Walter Kasper, Crossroad, NY.
Faith
The Gospel according to Moses, Athol Dickson, BrazosPress, IL.
The African Memory of Mark, Thomas C. ODen, IVP Academic, IL.
The Return of the Prodigal Son, Henri J.M. Nouwen, Image Books (Doubleday). NY.
Justice

If he doesn’t want them, I get to keep them 🙂
Peace be with you,
