An angel dog? Nonsense, thought Anderson. But the more she thought about it, the more she realized that perhaps she was putting limits on how God ought to act. If God is the God of everything, can't he use anything--even a dog--to help people in their time of need? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAngelic Tails\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of down-to-earth true stories from ordinary people who believe that God has graced their lives through heavenly canine companions. Each of the 30 stories challenges readers to reconsider their conception of angels--from the story of a former Air Force colonel whose golden retrievers served as his heavenly helpers in the Colorado wilderness to the account of St. John Bosco, who, for more than 30 years, was protected by an angelic dog as he walked the dangerous city streets. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAngelic Tails\u003c\/i\u003e is written from a clearly Orthodox Christian perspective. In fact, Anderson opens the book by describing how she came to embrace the idea of God's dog-helpers only after asking the Holy Spirit for discernment. In the end, for all who see through the eyes of faith, this book is evidence that God can use even muddy paws and cold noses to fulfill his purposes in our world.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joan Wester Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0829435433\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780829435436\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Loyola Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.41h x 7.45w x 0.60d","brand":"Joan Wester Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990413639935,"sku":"9780829435436","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_56de4482-1e7d-4d9b-8b65-a073e993deed.jpg?v=1683304536","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/angelic-tails-joan-wester-anderson-9780829435436","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
