Product Description
Each new generation rediscovers George MacDonald, as his son Greville predicted. The Truth in Jesus brings together a new collection of sermons and essays that explore the source and essence of truth. Thanks to Michael Phillips's skillful editing, these thoughtful insights into what truth is, how we come to know truth, and how God reveals truth through his Son speak to readers as clearly today as they did during MacDonald's lifetime. Phillips retains MacDonald's message and style, then adds his perceptive commentary on MacDonald's work, making the nineteenth-century Scottish writer's wisdom accessible to twenty-first-century readers.
About The Author
GEORGE MACDONALD (1824-1905), Scottish Victorian writer, began his adult life as a clergyman. After a short career in the pulpit, he turned to writing, and with publication of his fiction in the 1860s, he became widely known throughout Britain and the United States. In addition to his novels, he wrote some fifty books, including poetry, short stories, sermons, and essays. MICHAEL PHILLIPS is a bestselling author with more than seventy of his own titles and editor/redactor of nearly thirty more books. He is known as one of the world's foremost MacDonald experts. In addition to the MacDonald titles adapted/edited for the contemporary reader, his publishing efforts in bringing back full-length quality facsimile editions also spawned renewed interest in MacDonald's original work. Michael and his wife, Judy, spend much of their time in Scotland, while making their home in California.
Reader ReviewsGood...Straight MacDonald without the Prose. I enjoy his sermons but I found the strength of this book was the translations of Michael Phillips. A nice combination that did not disappoint.
