of
Bronze and Brokenness - Midianites (Light of Nations, #4):
"Again, different sides to familiar biblical accounts being prsented with story-telling within story telling. I appreciated the underlying analogy of the God as a coppersmith moulding and refining us, repairing our brokenness and burnishing us into be"

4.5 stars A well-written book with plenty of substance. Lots too about living in Thailand in the 1960s and the challenges of leprosy ... full of hope too. |

4.5 stars A hard book because of the topics but excellent. Excellent writing, themes, spiritual content. It would make a wonderful discussion book for a book club. This will not be my last KC book. |
