Just Wondering - Philip Yancey

Here are 44 ‘ruminations’ from the author of The Jesus I never Knew. Chosen to reflect Yancy’s own awe at the world God made, they are by turns cheerful and disturbing – and always reflect the author’s powers of observation.

• Why did god stay silent during the Holocaust?
• Where did racial hatred come from?
• Why do people show great interest in near-death experiences, but very little in heaven?
• Why is sex fun?
• Why is almost all religious art realistic, whereas much of God’s creations excel at abstract design?

this acute, finely-honed collection will give a lot of pleasure and provoke a lot of thought.
