{"product_id":"life-on-the-edge-brother-john-of-taize-9781498243049","title":"Life on the Edge: Holy Saturday and the Recovery of the End Time","description":"Is the Christian faith something that can peacefully exist alongside all the other aspects of an ordinary human life, or does it by its very nature turn that life into something else? The author of this book, a member of a monastic community for over forty years, obviously has a vested interest in the answer. But even for believers caught up in the day-to-day life of society, work, and family, the question is an important one, at least if they are seeking a measure of consistency in the life they are living. And does not the very fact that the question of the importance and urgency of faith needs to be asked witness to the eclipse of an eschatological outlook among Christians, at any rate in the mainstream Churches? Could this oversight not explain why an eschatological understanding of faith, one which sees it as a radical, world-changing reality, has been forced to take refuge, often deformed to the point of being unrecognizable, in small \"fanatical\" groups on the margins of the Christian world?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brother John of Taize\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1498243045\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498243049\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cascade Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/26\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Brother John of Taize","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48453713330431,"sku":"9781498243049","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_74415da3-83df-41e2-8792-ff1fba5aeae8.jpg?v=1777301842","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/life-on-the-edge-brother-john-of-taize-9781498243049","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
