Description :

《一掷千金的上帝》是《纽约时报》与亚马逊书店排行榜畅销书作者提姆·凯乐专著,故事主要讲述一位有两个儿子的父亲,在将家产分给儿子后,对小儿子因那家产后离家出走,并随意挥霍后回家的态度,不仅接纳,更是让大儿子也去原谅和接纳小儿子。借而来说明每个人的成长及内心的期盼。

内容简介: 有一位父亲,他有两个儿子。小儿子要求分家产,在得到家产之后他就离开家乡远走高飞,在纸醉金迷、放纵声色中耗尽了所有。在忧伤痛悔的觉悟中他决定回家,没想到父亲竟然伸开双臂迎接他。但这个欢迎却让大儿子极度生气。故事最后父亲规劝大儿子一起来接纳并赦免他的弟弟。在寻求意义和价值的旅途中,我们每个人都正如这故事中的儿子。或是如小儿子,放任自我颠覆传统;或是如大儿子,顺服自律,心却早已远离。无论我们是何种类型的人,都迷失在外。我们的内心要如何才能由“小儿子”的恐惧、“大儿子”的愤怒,转变为喜乐、爱与感恩呢?作者独提姆·凯乐辟蹊径地借由《一掷千金的上帝(精)》向我们显明上帝是一位花费极大耗尽所有的上帝(God of Great Expenditure)。对他的儿女来说,若不说他是“一掷千金”地施恩在我们身上,就不足以形容。不计一切的恩典,是我们*的盼望,是我们生命改变的经历,也是《一掷千金的上帝(精)》的主题。

Newsweek called renowned minister Timothy Keller "a C.S. Lewis for the twenty-first century" in a feature on his first book, The Reason for God. In that book, he offered a rational explanation of why we should believe in God. Now, in The Prodigal God, Keller takes his trademark intellectual approach to understanding Christianity and uses the parable of the prodigal son to reveal an unexpected message of hope and salvation.

Within that parable Jesus reveals God's prodigal grace toward both the irreligious and the moralistic. This book will challenge both the devout and skeptics to see Christianity in a whole new way.
