Three classic titles now in one volume! The Genesis Trilogy has long been awaited by fans of Madeleine L?Engle, who have expressed a desire to have all three of the authors books on Genesis in one volume. In addition to L?Engle?s vast reader base, The Genesis Trilogy will be embraced by the literary community (which deeply respects L?Engle?s award-winning work) and all those who seek to experience more fully the truths represented in Genesis. Book 1 of the trilogy, And It Was Good, speaks especially to those captivated by the creation story and those interested in new beginnings, while Book 2, A Stone for a Pillow, holds treasure for those seeking answers to the questions posed during their inner and outer journeys. Book 3, Sold into Egypt, provides hope to those who have experienced grief and loss. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

And It Was Good focuses on events of the first twenty-two chapters of Genesis, from Creation to Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac and what she felt God was teaching her in her personal daily reading.
A Stone for a Pillow is the story of Jacob, intertwined with L'Engle's personal thoughts on God, love, the interconnectivity of the universe, and giving blessings instead of cursing.
Finally, Sold Into Egypt rounds out the book of Genesis with Joseph's brothers selling him into slavery and their eventual reconciliation. Written a few years later than the other two, the book also includes thoughts on loss and death, and the danger in having a God to narrowly defined by tradition instead of the Word.
I found L'Engle's comments provoking, sometimes meshing with my own understanding and sometimes challenging me to think about why I believe what I believe. We come from different faith traditions (though both Christian), but there was a lot we could agree on. I found it particularly interesting reading the first two titles when I was also reading Genesis, and her thoughts sometimes provided fresh insight into a familiar passage. Despite what I had been told when I was a child, I think Madeleine L'Engle's nonfiction has a lot in common with that of C.S. Lewis's, and I highly recommend this series. ( )
