About This Book
Here Be Wonders: The Gospel's Pulse in Unsettled Times delights in stories about God's goodness and mercy at work (and at play!) in surprising people and situations. Yet it can be unnerving when faith communities find themselves off the known map, surprised by what they haven't seen (and maybe don't want to). In the middle of inevitable fears, and whether or not we say a wholehearted "yes, " God keeps calling us to be present in wonder stories like these about unforeseen consequences, unscripted happenings, interruptions, and improbabilities in parish ministry. Sometimes these experiences turn inherited expectations upside-down. Often, they challenge stereotypes and reveal that people are more capable and gifted than we thought. The stories in Here Be Wonders reveal glimpses of God's imagination and invite the church forward into new life. Organized by the seasons of the church year, these stories are meant for individual and group reflection.
