Amazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith

by Kathleen Norris

Amazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The beloved author of The Cloister Walk takes readers on a moving journey in this thoroughly original investigation of faith. Taking as her starting point the "scary words" that can intimidate and distance us from our religious heritage — words like "judgment, faith, dogma, salvation", and "sinner" — Norris blends history, theology, storytelling, etymology, and memoir to reflect on their meanings.

Review:

"Norris's lyrical prose rings with clarity and grace as she brings life to her experience of the church's vocabulary." Publishers Weekly
