I am currently reading through this terrific book with our youngest son, Chris, who is on a summer missions trip in the Dominican Republic. Courtesy of Skype, we were able to talk through the first two chapters this past Sunday.
One excerpt for your reading pleasure:
“On one occasion a widow put into her husband’s coffin two cans of the spray adhesive that the dead man had used to paste on his toupee, causing an explosion that bent the furnace door.”
(Surprised by Hope by N.T. Wright, p. 12)
Talk about going out with a bang!
