Description - Sermons - Biblical Wisdom for Daily Living by Peter J Gomes


Widely acclaimed as one of America’s greatest preachers and most influential thinkers, Peter J. Gomes here presents a collection of 40 timeless addresses to guide us through the year and enrich our daily lives.

“Seasons” begins with Advent expectations, showing us how at Christmas we can usefully channel our feelings of depression, impatience, and joy, while at Easter we can confront our fears of death and give life a chance. “Themes” focuses on what the scriptures have to say about a range of issues and sensibilites including: relationships, and our desire for happiness; frustrations and anxieties that can be means for discovery of wholeness; and hospitality, patriotism, stewardship, and thanksgiving.

With his characteristic eloquence and compassion, quoting from T.S. Eliot and Woody Allen as well as from Scripture, Gomes offers us the tools we need to understand the wisdom of the Bible and the joy and inspiration it can bring to everyday life.
