Description

Deriving their title from a particularly moving epiphany sparked by his daughter, these warm, intensely personal meditations from an eminent theologian celebrate the simple clarity that Melissa moments bring to the complex problems of daily life. Cauthen confronts profound moral and theological issues with a winning combination of deep scriptural understanding and poignant stories about real people and their struggles, sufferings, and moral challenges. Rejoicing In Life's Melissa Moments will make you think -- but more importantly, it will also touch your heart.
