God doesn’t always answer our prayers according to our clock. And too often we despair when we needn’t—because we don’t understand. Sometimes, by our standards, he seems to be late. We wonder if he is coming at all. But this little book shows us that God is always right on time— because his timing is kairos in our life’s experiences and the situations in which we find ourselves. The Rev. Canon Michael Stewart (an Anglican priest in British Columbia) contrasts and compares God’s perfect kairos timing with our worldly clock and calendar sense of time. Michael Stewart shows us that learning at least something of God’s timing is a foundational experience, like learning to tie our shoes or use a fork and knife, and that it is a necessary part of maturing in Christ.
Probably like most of you readers, authors and budding authors out there, I've been into books for as long as I can remember. My earliest book memory is of reading Winston Churchill's autobiography - whilst I was still in primary school! I just loved to read - anything and everything! I think I was about 12 when I had a short story of mine used as student subject matter by an English study professor at an Oxford college (although I'm not quite sure whether that was an example of something really good or really bad!!). I can't recall a lot of my academic life during my schooling years, but that one event still stands out as the real highlight for me (and i'm sure that the story has just got better and better every time I have told it over the years!).
Unfortunately I never followed my dream and made writing or journalism my career. With a complete lack of planning on my part, I somehow ended up in business, travelling the world and starting a few businesses here and there! I guess some people might call me an entrepreneur - which has been great - but I still missed my vocation in life.
Now, at 54 years old, married to a wonderful wife and with four fantastic children I am trying to do something about that. I am finally writing, enjoying creating my own characters and telling my own stories.
My debut novel; The Angel of Time is now available on Amazon in Kindle format.
