What would it be like to read the Bible in the company of some of Christianity's most highly regarded saints and sages---people such as John Wesley, Thomas Merton, Mother Teresa, C. S. Lewis, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Martin Luther King, Jr.? Silent Conversations provides exactly this kind of experience in its novel approach to meditative Scripture reading. Arranged according to the thematic sections of faith, hope, and love, each chapter begins with a Bible passage and a quote from the writings of a saint or sage. The biblical text is then probed and pondered, followed by an examination of its importance in the experience of the sage or saint. You'll find wisdom and inspiration in your Bible study as this 'faithful cloud of witnesses' is gathered by your side!
