This book was under my desk at work. In my semi-annual purge of that black hole, I read a few pages of this and decided to bring this collection of sermons home. Either I hadn't noticed or had forgotten that Fleming Rutledge is a woman. She is one of the first women that the Episcopal church ordained in 1977.
I was able to use this as part of my devotions for about two months. Rutledge is a good writer and I could tell that her sermons would be interesting to hear. She had refreshing things to say about Paul and I found her sermons about Ruth and Lydia fascinating.
If I am going to enjoy a book, I want to learn something or have something to think about at the end. I want interesting characters and the better the writing, the happier I am. Fleming Rutledge gave me all these things. I may have to find something else to read that she has written.
I recommend this mostly to Christians of the liberal persuasion, to readers looking for something inspirational and to those who like to pick books up, read a bit and put them down. Most of these sermons were about five pages.
