Résumé
In this book for the curious spiritual seeker Madeleine L Engle offers relevant lessons drawn from the life of Jacob from the Old Testament P P Here the son of Isaac becomes a spiritual… companion to L Engle equipping her to deal with earthly and psychological struggles Throughout her journey L Engle offers contemporary answers to questions that burden modern day readers and believers With her customary fearlessness and candor she broaches such topics as the significance of angels redemption sexual identity forgiveness and the seemingly constant conflict between good and evil P Madeleine L Engle possesses the same ambidextrous skill of storytelling as other literary giants including C S Lewis and George MacDonald Her fictional stories appeal to generations of readers and are equally embraced in both the secular and religious markets But it is her ability in her nonfiction to engage with the historical text of the Bible through a dynamic unpacking of protagonists antagonists and matters of faith that establishes the Genesis Trilogy as a highly treasured collection of spiritual writings P A Stone for a Pillow acts as a compass for those traveling through the tumultuous landscape of faith in our cynical and divisive modern culture
