Faith without Hostages by Harriet A Harris

Harriet Harris takes the themes of Lent and Holy Week and makes them strikingly relevant to our lives today. Each chapter begins with a Biblical story, from the various readings set for this season, and moves on to consider its significance for us today. The questions tackled include: What makes you fear and tremble? Where is God in that struggle?; Do we need to change how we spend our money, how we acquire our money, the people we wish to impress, the things we aim to do well? and Do people ever become better by being excluded, or by excluding others?
"startling questions and insights to make us dig deeper and think harder" Monica Furlong
Harriet Harris is Chaplain of Wadham College, Oxford, and is widely known in "post-Evangelical" circles. She is an eminent scholar in the field of Sociology of Religion.
