Product Description
Coming to religion through the front door—rather than through a weeping, born-again conversion—can make it difficult to understand how faith changes life, and even harder to grasp why it must. Through a series of engaging stories, this memoir subtly illustrates how truly following Jesus inevitably leads through places where change is nonnegotiable.
From the Back Cover
In this warm and witty memoir, Sarah Cunningham shares more than just a chronicle of the people and experiences of her life. Each story she recounts illustrates her growing understanding of God’s kingdom, true faith, and reconciliation. The daughter of a Baptist minister, Cunningham had always identified herself as a Christian and never entertained a reason to change. But challenges and change, the author discovers, are the stuff and substance of the life God gave her. As her own stories unfold, Cunningham underscores themes of change using vivid imagery. Whether she’s describing her life as a child living next to a cemetery, or her grandmother’s adjustments to life as an English “war bride†after WWII, the author evokes carefully crafted pictures of growth and renewal, planting and reaping, greenery and weeds—tying it all to heaven and the life God wants for her and her readers. Picking Dandelions is a candid and personal account of outgrowing laissez-faire Christianity, moving into mature faith, and realizing that a God-following person is a changing person. Discerning readers just might follow suit.
