Résumé : |
Living Quotations for Christians provides quick access to a wealth of significant sayings for pastors, lay ministers, writers, students, and all who are involved in the sharing and communication of the Christian faith. Its 350 categories —from “acceptance” to “zeal”—are arranged alphabetically and each of the 3500 quotations is individually numbered, making this volume an ideal resource and reference work. There is also an author index and a topical index which gives extensive cross references to related quotations.
Here are prophetic words from today’s Christian spokesmen such as Billy Graham and Carl F. H. Henry. Here too is the wisdom of the centuries from Augustine to Luther to C. S. Lewis. There are also memorable quotations from the world’s anonymous and little-known sages. The Bible, Shakespeare, and the corpus of mankind’s finest literature echo throughout these pages, as well as, for example, the time-honored proverbs of individual nations and cultures. The entire collection bears a positive thrust and is comprehensive and well-balanced. Topics include the vital issues of the day such as evangelism and involvement, politics and pollution, together with the enduring concerns of every age: atonement, faith, forgiveness, immortality, freedom. Immensely practical, the volume offers quotable material on drugs, taxes, gossip, health, war, and law, to name but a few. |
