If we are to know true freedom, we need to recognize the things that help us 'dance with God': learning grace, accepting brokenness, self forgiveness. We also need to be aware of what hinders our progress: judgment, self criticism, shame, seeking others' approval.Down-to-earth, engaging and psychologically astute, "Dancing with God" takes us 'inside' the gospel stories, so we might explore these ideas through imagining ourselves to be in the presence of Jesus. What was it like to be the woman at the well meeting this unique stranger? Or the woman, washing Jesus' feet with her tears, criticized and unvalued? Or Paul, having your entire, carefully-ordered world turned upside down? As we envision the freedom and grace in which these individuals were invited to live, we may learn to forget the childhood scripts, the rules, requirements and laws that bind us, and allow ourselves instead to step out and dance with our creator - to be transformed, gently and continuously, through the all-encompassing love of Christ.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    For those of us who are very familiar with the Gospel stories, it is great to find a book that gives a new take on Jesus’ encounters and storytelling that helps one to ‘see’ again, for light to shine into the corners of our being that are pretty much in shadow. As the title states, the book focuses on ‘dancing’ with God, joyful, lively interaction and movement. In some of the chapters I was a bit disappointed that the diagrams didn’t lead into a deeper exploration – expected something more and wasn’t sure they contributed much. A book to be read a chapter at a time and reflected upon. I found it hopeful and it stimulated the yearning to see Christ more clearly, love him more dearly and follow him more nearly.
