description: An inspiring look at the relevance of the gospel for today's world. The Christian gospel is the dramatic story of creation, sin, and redemption--a story Christians encounter afresh each time they read the Bible or worship in church. Living The Christian Story explores this continuing encounter with the Christian story through Word and sacrament and shows how both shape the church community and individuals seeking to live out the gospel in the context of daily life. Sister Mary Jean Manninen brings a host of unique perspectives to her discussion. Several chapters describe the monastic life and what it offers to our modern society. Other chapters present concrete examples of modern Christian lives and address questions that confront thinking Christians across the spectrum. Balancing respect for Christian tradition with an eye to contemporary relevance, Living The Christian Story will be a valuable resource for nurturing spirituality through church, personal, or small-group study.
