All Is Grace: A Ragamuffin Memoir by John Blase, Brennan Manning
3.0
“This vulgar grace is indiscriminate compassion. It works without asking anything of us. It's not cheap. It's free, and as such will always be a banana peel for the Orthodox foot and a fairy tale for the grown-up sensibility. Grace is sufficient even though we huff and puff with all our might to try to find something or someone it cannot cover. Grace is enough. He is enough. Jesus is enough.”
I last read books by Manning in 2008. Somewhere along the way, I was able to download this book, his autobiography. I read it last May, but forgot to write down my thoughts.
Manning had a hard life and his recognition of G-d’s grace in his life did not come easily or quickly. Like many of us, he had to learn the lessons of love over and over again.
Although I am not sorry I read this book, I believe that Manning’s book, The Ragamuffin Gospel is far superior. If you haven’t read that one, start there.
