Perfect in it's simplicity, Manning's parable will warm your heart by revealing God's unconditional love and promises to you. What a joy to read for young and old!
This book is a delight to read. In just one sitting it so clearly show's you the heart of Abba, as only Manning can do. The tender story of healing in a boy that is you, and is me. As you turn each page the layers of your heart are stripped away to expose the tender heart that God created. The heart that beats only to love Him and to enjoy fellowship with Abba! I will be reading in anytime I need to be reminded of His love for me.
Manning's message of God's love is expressed very simply in a parable meant for both children and adults. A masterpiece in simplicity to convey a message we all need to hear. Jesus Christ loves us more than we can imagine and is a friend when all others turn away. Thanks Brennan once agai
Any Brennan book is truly a spiritual rewarding experience!!! God is good and so is his child Brennan Manning.
The story is of a physically disabled, lonely orphan boy who finds acceptance and love beyond his wildest imagination, and at the same time a parable representing the gospel story of Jesus' forgiveness and acceptance allowing us the joy of friendship with God. A "must read" for anyone who doubts his or her own worth and acceptance. This is my second purchase of this book since I loaned my first copy to a friend who shared it with another friend and so on. I wanted to read it again and decided it was well worth purchasing another copy.
