Incorporation

Informationen zum Autor Will Willimon is a widely read author whose previous novel, Incorporation, was widely acclaimed. He is Professor of the Practice of Christian Ministry at Duke Divinity School, Durham, North Carolina, and is a retired United Methodist bishop. Klappentext Hope Church--its clergy and its people--are quite a congregation, an unforgettable cast of saints and sinners. While serving a heavenly realm, they also have their feet plainly planted in the muck and mire of the real world. Here is an Easter story of ordinary folk caught in the gracious grasp of an extraordinary God. In this rollicking, hilarious, sometimes pathetic, fast-paced, and always entertaining journey through a month of Sundays at Hope Church, we meet a wild cast of characters in church people surprised to be the body of Christ. Sex, violence, greed, grunge, lust, and lies--all in church! Saints and sinners all, caught within the embrace of a God who refuses to make proper distinctions.
