Lively Hope: A Taste of God's Tomorrow - Paperback

by J. Daniel Day (Author)

Lively Hope by J. Daniel Day explores hope through thoughtful meditations that distinguish between our life-hopes and our hopes for the world. The book's main title comes from scripture, specifically from the venerable 1611 King James translation of 1 Peter 1:3, which says God has "begotten us again unto a lively hope." Day guides the reader through understanding the phenomenon of hope, hope's many challenges, and our literary view of hope. Day writes, "I want to explore lively hope, the kind that sings songs in the night and stares down long odds in clear daylight, the kind that dares to dance before the fiddler has even picked up his bow and won't stop talking until the right has been done. Anything less isn't worth your time or mine."
