Natalie Brand Livres
Natalie Brand, Ph.D. de Trinity St David, est tuteur pour les femmes et maître de conférences en théologie historique et systématique à l'Union School of Theology. Passionnée par la fiction pour jeunes adultes et la théologie réformée, elle est profondément dévouée au café et au Christ.
In the style of The Screwtape Letters, with a satire that will make you both cringe and laugh-out-loud, Natalie Brand demonstrates the havoc unleashed by careless words. Scuttlebutt (naval slang for the ship's gossip) is the affectionate nickname given to the Tongue by the Heart, as he reprimands the Tongue for steering the whole person into catastrophe; enjoying morsels of gossip, creating smokescreens of lies. From the Bible's teaching on speech, particularly the Proverbs, the reader will taste the bitter destruction of the Tongue. But as the Heart rebukes the Tongue it becomes increasingly clear that something isn't right ... there is another villain, a deeper poison, lurking within. What can be done if the Tongue remains untameable? Will the Heart get away with his hypocrisy? Is there redemption for either? An immensely challenging little book for anyone with a tongue ... or a heart!
