The God Of The Mundane: Reflections on Ordinary Life for Ordinary People

About this book

Weve all heard the sermons and read the books: "If you really loved God you would be radical. You would sell your belongings. You would become a missionary and move to another country." Matthew B. Redmond has preached the gospel of doing more for God and he wants out. In this collection of essays he asks a simple question: what about the rest of us? Is there a God for our often-mundane lives? This is a book about pastors plumbers dental hygienists and stay-at-home moms. It finds grace and mercy in chicken fingers smiles from strangers and classic films and ultimately convicts us of something Matt Redmond has learned himself: there is a God of the mundane and its not about what we do for him. Its about what he does for us.
