Amazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith Book

"Our ridiculously fallible language becomes a lesson in how God's grace works despite and even through our human frailty. We will never get the words exactly right. There will always be room for imperfection, for struggle, growth and change. And this is as it should be." With observations like this one, Kathleen Norris, author of Dakota and The Cloister Walk, has again provided a salutary corrective for contemporary Christians in Amazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith. The book is about how she learned to use religious words, such as "incarnation," "idolatry," and "evangelism." Norris is a feminist, a theological conservative, a sophisticate, and a country bumpkin.

  • Product Description

    As she did in "The Cloister Walk" and "Dakota", Kathleen Norris blends history, anecdote, memoir, and theology with a poet's grasp of language, this time examining common religious terms that often intimidate people and distance them from the religious tradition they were raised in. In "Amazing Grace", Norris continues her examination of a spiritual world rooted firmly in the chaos of daily life (Inspirational) .
