We've all felt the tension. An opportunity to speak for Christ comes up, and either we jump in with both barrels blasting or we cower in the corner and say nothing. Is there a better way? Can we learn to speak boldly, yet humbly, about our faith in Christ? Jim Sire offers a little primer on understanding the nature and limits of apologetics.

Seller's Description:
London. 1986. Women's Press. 1st British Paperback Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers. 0704339897. 124 pages. paperback. Cover illustration by Leslee Wills. keywords: Literature Black America Women. FROM THE PUBLISHER-From her first collection of short stories, A PIECE OF MINE, to the recently published THE FUTURE HAS A PAST, J. California Cooper has introduced an appealing and diverse cast of characters struggling to make the right choices and find happiness in a society that prefers light skin over dark, money over spirit. The central characters are often women entangled in a tradition of oppression and the inescapable traps of racism, sexism, and poverty. Many of the stories are narrated in the first-person, capturing the cadences of ordinary conversations and lending the stories the intimacy and resonance of gossip shared among friends. They are alive with wry observations on the human tendency toward foolish choices and impetuous behavior, a rich understanding of the small comforts that provide respite from big struggles, and a wisdom based on faith in God and in humankind's potential for goodness. 'It's a rare pleasure to follow the quick and pointed intelligence that animates Rosser's poems. Some are sonnets, some are long and lean, but all have clear, idiosyncratic voices. They come bearing philosophy, nostalgia, rabies, chicken soup and the head of Holofernes. They're funny, tart, perceptive-good company. And more than one goes armed with a blackjack ending. '-Sarah Lindsay. inventory #34555.
