Rumors of Another World
by Philip Yancey
Award-winning author Philip Yancey challenges those skeptical about religion and dwelling in the borderlines of belief to consider the rumors that could hold the answers to their hard questions on God's goodness, the vanity of life, and the logic of faith.
Book Excerpt
"I have learned to attend to fainter contacts between the seen and unseen worlds. I sense in romantic love something insufficiently explained by mere biochemical attraction. I sense in beauty and in nature marks of a genius creator for which the natural response is worship... I sense in desire, including sexual desire, marks of a holy yearning for connection. I sense in pain and suffering a terrible disruption that omnipotent love surely cannot abide forever. I sense in compassion, generosity, justice, and forgiveness a quality of grace that speaks to me of another world. I sense in Jesus a person who lived those qualities so consistently that the world could not tolerate him and had to silence and dispose of him. I believe, not so much because the invisible world impinges on this one but because the visible world hints, in the ways that move me most, at a lack of completion."
