Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging


Description

Is an impostor robbing you of God's love?We've bought into the lie that we are worthy of God's love only when our lives are going well. If our families are happy or our jobs are meaningful, life is a success. But when life begins to fall through the cracks and embarrassing sins threaten to reveal our less-than-perfect identity, we scramble to keep up a good front to present to the world--and to God. We hide until we can rearrange the mask of perfection. Sadly, it is then that we wonder why we lack intimate relationships and a passionate faith.All this time God is calling us to take the mask off and come openly to Him. He longs for us to know in the depth of our beings that He loves us and accepts us as we are. When we are our true selves, we can finally claim our identity as God's child--Abba's child--and experience His pure pleasure in who we are. Brennan Manning encourages us to let go of the impostor lifestyle and freely accept our belovedness as a child of the heavenly Father. In Him there is life.

The definitive edition of Kurt Vonnegut s fiction concludes with three brilliantly satirical novels of the 1980s and 90s collected in one volume for the first time.Here are the final three novels of thevisionary master who defined a generation. "Bluebeard" (1987) isthe colorful history of a phenomenally gifted realist painterwho, in the 1950s, betrayed his artistic vision for commercialsuccess. now, at seventy-one, he writes his memoirs and plotshis revenge on the worldly forces that conspired to corrupt histalent. In "Hocus Pocus" (1990), a freewheeling prison memoirby a Vietnam vet and disgraced academic, Vonnegut brings hisindelible voice to a range of still-burning issues free speech, racism, environmental calamity, deindustrialization, and globalization. "Timequake" (1997), the author s last completed novel, is part science fiction yarn (starring perennial protagonistKilgore trout), part diary of the mid-1990s (starring theauthor himself). the result is a perfect fusion of Vonnegut s twosignature genres, the satirical fantasy and the personal essay, anda literary magician s fond farewell to his readers and his craft. Rounded out Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging download PDF with a selection of short nonfictionpieces intimately related to these three works, thisvolume presents the final word from the artist who the"San Francisco Chronicle," reviewing "Timequake," called an old warrior who will not accept the dehumanizing ofpolitics, the blunting of conscience, and the glibness ofthe late-twentieth-century Western world.
