The Promise of Paradox: A Celebration of Contradictions in the Christian Life

First published in 1980â‚¬"and reissued here with a feisty new introductory essayâ‚¬"The Promise of Paradox launched Parker J. Palmerâ‚¬s career as an author and his ongoing exploration of the contradictions that vex and enrich our lives. In this probing and heartfelt book, the distinguished writer, teacher, and activist examines some of the challenging questions at the core of Christian spirituality. How do we live with the apparent opposition between good and evil, scarcity and abundance, individuality and community, death and new life? We can hold them as paradoxes, not â‚¬Å“either/ors,â‚¬Â allowing them to open our minds and hearts to new ways of seeing and being.
