Vissa dagar är jag inte säker på om min tro är perforerad av tvivel eller om mitt tvivel (barmhärtigt nog) är perforerat av tro. Och ändå fortsätter jag att leva i världen på det sätt som en religiös person lever i världen; jag fortsätter leva i en värld som jag vet är hänförande, och som inte är lämnad åt sig själv. Jag tvivlar, jag är osäker, jag är rastlös, benägen till att irra. Och likafullt finns där ett heligt sken som avbryter mitt stirrande.Ur bokenI den här boken beskriver Lauren F Winner hur hennes erfarenheter av sin mammas död och sin egen skilsmässa oväntat kastar henne rakt in i en livskris av tvivel och andlig förtvivlan.Träffsäkert, relaterbart och intensivt ärligt beskriver Winner sin andliga livskris. Det är en stark och brutalt ärlig berättelse om när Gud och tro upplevs frånvarande mitt i livet.

SEX. Splashed across magazine covers, billboards, and computer screens--sex is casual, aggressive, and absolutely everywhere. And everybody's doing it, right?In Real Sex, heralded young author Lauren F. Winner speaks candidly to Christians about the difficulty--and the importance--of sexual chastity. With honesty and wit, she talks about her struggle to live a celibate life. Never dodging tough terms like "confession" and "sin," Winner grounds her discussion of chastity first and foremost in Scripture. She confronts cultural lies about sex and challenges how we talk about sex in church. Her biblically grounded observations and suggestions will be especially valuable to unmarried Christians struggling with the sexual mania of today's culture. Real Sex is essential reading for Christians grappling with chastity and a valuable tool for pastors.

What does it mean to love Scripture throughout the church year--even when God's Word seems strange to us? How can we meet Scripture, again and again, until its strangeness becomes a home?In The Entangled Word, acclaimed author Lauren F. Winner invites readers to join her as she preaches through the church year. In unexpected, gracious, and wise sermons, Winner· helps those seeking more intimacy with Scripture find fresh ways into familiar texts,· shows that staying with difficult texts is its own form of devotion, and· kindles our affection for God's Word.Winner covers highlights of the church year, such as Advent, Lent, Easter Vigil, and Pentecost, but she also marks moments that require communal prayer: a child's birth, a cancer diagnosis, a sudden death, a prayer answered. In deft and distinctive prose, she reads Scripture together with flora and fauna, history and current events, theology and tradition, beauty and bodies. Winner envisions swallows nesting in church eaves as a picture of baptism, ivy growing like doubting Thomas, and marriage as both a swamp and a river. These sermons spark curiosity and wonder in those who have grown bored with Scripture and help those wounded by it to find healing.
