  Thoughts On Children 2nd Edition

  $8.00

  Theres a saying that each child is a thought in the mind of God. But even if we believe this, and approach the children entrusted to us with the reverence that such a belief ought to instill, we may often feel helpless whether in the face of a two-year-olds tantrum or a teenagers silence. In this little book, two fathers (themselves a father and son) share their thoughts on the essence of bringing up children. Whats more, the authors are the Blumhardts, whose huge contribution to 20th century theology, especially Karl Barth, is now being more widely recognized.

  Action In Waiting

  $12.00

  Given the number of people who ve been saved, you d think the world was becoming a brighter place. It could be, too, if more people would grasp the joy of losing themselves in service to God and each other. People like Christoph Blumhardt, who, in his quest to get to the essentials of faith, burns away the religious trappings of modern piety like so much chaff.
  Blumhardt writes with unabashed fervor, but his passion encourages rather than intimidates. His witness influenced theological giants like Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Karl Barth. But “Action in Waiting” is not theology; it is too blunt, too earthy, too real. Its active expectation of God s kingdom shows us that the object of our hope is not relegated to some afterlife. Today, in our world, it can come into its own if only we are ready.”
