2nd Hand - I Am Somewhere Else: Gospel Reflections From An Emerging Church By Barbara Glasson

2nd hand - whilst the book is in good condition, there are multiple pink highlighted passages

'Faith, like life, begins as a gift not a doctrine. I move, I breathe, I see, I relate, I love.

'Life dawns on us as we grow in self-awareness. We do not know why we are alive but with every breath we breathe we experience life as a given. Sometimes we are thankful for it and sometimes it scares us witless.

'I believe faith is about questions not answers. Questions that emerge from living the life-gift. How can I live with my fear? What does this relationship mean? How do I deal with my anger? Living out of our own questions is the way that we begin to get to grips with who we are and possibly to move on to ask some of the questions behind the existence, "If life is a gift then who or what is the Giver?!.'

This book presents a spirituality arising from the experience of an unusal and innovative ministry in the centre of Liverpool. Barbara Glasson cherishes 'the bread church' an inclusive faith community where people gather to bake bread and worship God together. Her remarkable reflections on the journey of faith, from the point of view of a theologian and a breadmaker will entral both readers inside and outside the church.
