Water from Stone

This book will help you understand the subtle ways that our Christian faith can become a bargain with God. Are you living out your faith with the tacit assumption that, if you perform according to God's will, He will perform according to yours? That if we live right, God will provide us a smoother running, more peaceful and secure life? Sooner or later those assumptions will fail you. When that happens your faith may fail with it. M. Wayne Brown offers an adjustment of perspective. Industriousness is a good and valid part of Christian living, but it should be peripheral to our faith. At the core of our faith belongs a passion for the transformation of our character into a likeness of Jesus Christ. Brown describes this process as consisting of stages of hope, truth, waiting and a new way of seeing. Here life is a journey of intimacy with God, "who loved us because He is love, not to get results." We can learn to love God and others the same way, trusting Him to provide the spiritual sustenance (water from stone) that we need to love and serve God in the present, everyday circumstances of our lives as they are (not as we wish them to be).
