    About this ebook

    Ever since Martin Luther penned his thoughts in “The Bondage of the Will”, Christians have debated over the level of self-determination found in Man. A debate not restricted to the Christian Community alone, but vigorously argued within the Secular realm as well. This book was written to encourage fellow believers, including those still sitting on the fence, not to be polarized by divergent biblical views (which sadly it too often does), but rather critically review what our own understanding is. It motivates as much a self-test and confrontation to review our own ingrained tradition, as well as challenges us not to lean only on tradition – on what was heard and how one was brought up in forming our own paradigm for life. To this end the reader will begin a journey that throws light on matters of the disposition of the heart, motive, temperament and other factors that deeply influence our thinking, and thereby shapes our tradition. It is a call to find what we believe of scripture not only to line up with the Word, but also with the Spirit it was written in. At first glance this would appear an obvious calling, but many do not make it. This book will resonate with the Christian and any who are willing to introspect on the human condition, and why it is we think, believe, and behave the way we do.

      Sep 13, 2018

      If You Have to Go, the new collection of poems by Katie Ford, is a book that conjures powers of possession. I feel that way about all of her books: Her poems bring me to a mystical plane somewhere between language and life. I’m left shaken. Her willi
