Today We Encounter a Hard Saying: The Lord, the Scripture, and Us - Paperback

by H. Ivor Kraft (Author)

A collection of twenty-one sermons given by Fr. H. Ivor Kraft from 2007 to 2011 at St. Michael's by-the-Sea Episcopal Church in Carlsbad, California USA A review from a 92 year old retired teacher. "Just two minutes ago I finished reading "Today We Encounter a Hard Saying," a series of sermons by Fr. Ivor Kraft at your church. You must have heard many of them. They are brief (compared to most sermons) and far more profound than most sermons. In fact I would put them at the top - or very close to the top - of all books I have ever read on our Christian faith. I wish all Christians could read them. I'm not going to try to analyze and give examples - that would mean copying the whole book. When you handed it to me, suggesting I might like to read part of it while we were there at Christmas, I had no idea what a true blessing you handed me. Thank you then for insisting that I bring it home and keep it. You must have another copy for yourself - and share it with family and/or friends - or keep referring to it often as one does to the Bible."
