Sparse








Me likey.







Knosis is self-emptying. Hard to do with so much stuff.

I had 3,00 volumes hardbound and like a cocoon. Also like a prison a bit.

I have about 50 books in here now. I figure I'll max out at 75.

The world is filled with a million books and 300,000 bookstores and so many authors with so little to say.

It's about Word.

My scant books are all about Word. Every one.

A Middle Eastern scholarly look at the Parables of Jesus (Bailey) ; Moffat's two vols. on Grace and Love in the New Testament; Lamott's Plan B and Hard Laughter; DeRougemont's Love Declared and Love in the Western World; Eastern Orthodox texts from early centuries: Great Lent, The Desert City, The Philokalia, etc....; another 6 volumes.

Bonhoeffer, Jewett, Lewis, as always Beuchner.

Becker and the Dalia Lama. Brueggemann.

N.T Wright and Walker Percy. How we do learn from and in the Word in all it's variations.

Word. Posted by Picasa
