Condition: New

This bonanza of 260 short essays harvests the "Reflections" columns written by Dr. Milton Sernett over a period of more than a quarter century for the newsletter of Faith Lutheran Church, Cicero, New York. The essays, rooted in the author's memories of a Midwestern youth, his three decades as a professor of history and religion at Syracuse University, and his own faith pilgrimage among family and friends take their inspiration from John Wesley's famous metaphor of spiritual renewal--"Heart Strangely Warmed." They are a gift to all readers who too struggle with how to live a faith-centered life, preserving memories of the good and the true from the past while giving an authentic witness of Christian discipleship in the present moment.
