Christians have proclaimed the Good News about Jesus for centuries.
Vanishing Grace calls us to see their thirst, and ours, in a hopeful new light as we listen, love, and offer a grace that is truly Good news..
Why? And what can we do about it? In the wake of recent events--Las Vegas, Charlottesville, Charleston, Ferguson, Islamic terrorism--people both inside and outside the church are thirsty for grace.
In a time of division and discord, grace seems in Vanishing supply.
Yet not everyone has tasted of that amazing grace, and not everyone believes in it. . . .
It stops us short, catches the breath, disarms.
What can we learn from those who shun church but consider themselves spiritual? Can the Good news, once spoiled, ever sound Good again? As Yancey writes, Like a sudden thaw in the middle of winter, grace happens at unexpected moments.
With a reporter\'s eye and a compassionate heart, Yancey suggests practical ways in which we can live as salt and light within a society that is radically changing.
He offers a discerning look at what contributes to a hostility toward Christians, and identifies three groups--pilgrims, artists, and activists--who can show us a different way.
In Vanishing Grace , bestselling author Philip Yancey acknowledges the problem and then explores how we can respond with both grace and truth.
More and more surveys show that people view Christians as bearers of bad news, judgment, and intolerance.
But the Good News isn\'t sounding so Good these days, at least to some.
