The Hammer of God by Bo Giertz
In this bestselling novel, three pastors learn the necessity of relying on God's grace. They fall short of their pastoral duties through public humiliation, self-doubt, inability to accept God's promises in their own lives, and divisions and quarreling among their parishioners. Ultimately each man rejects temptations and permits the Holy Spirit to work through him.
This revised edition includes the final chapter, never before published in English. The new introduction provides historical and theological background to deepen the reader's understanding of the stories.
Giertz, Bo: - Bo Giertz (1905-1998) A Swedish Lutheran Pastor and Bishop, is often remembered for his novel, The Hammer of God. In his own day, however, he was known for his powerful preaching and teaching. As liberalism swept through the Church of Sweden, Giertz persisted in calling her back to the word of God while always proclaiming the good news of the gospel. For this reason, he is remembered as one of Sweden's most influential modern theologians.
