Stories, Tales and a Few Small Lies of a Country Parson

Portada
Forward Movement, 21 de des. 2001 - 204 pàgines
A house cat terrified by an unexpected visit from a friendly wolf. A snowfall that covers a junkyard with a blanket of whiteness. A four year-old boy with an uncanny awareness of Jesus love for each one of us. Bob Horine weaves recollections such as these into stories that bring a smile to our lips and a wistful tug to our hearts. He invites us to see that our ordinary lives are, indeed, extraordinary, and that our world is transparent to the love of God that shines through.
