Deep Sympathy and Wry Humor,
By Editor, Author, Publicist (Denver, Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In the House of the Lord (Hardcover)
Take a day in the life of Reverend Shahan, a a Protestant minister, youhful, devoted, searching for full understanding of his faith and his work in a world whose events seem to validate the death of religion.
With each validation of God he seeks, he is met with harsh reality and deep disappointment. Filled with events, characters and with emotion, the novel comes directly to terms with religion as it follows Shahan through encounters with his parishioners, his fellow clergy, his family--and his doubts--during the course of a tumultuous, yet typical, day In the House of the Lord. Flynn has an amazing ability to expose our religious hypocrisies and human flaws, while displaying a deep sympathy for the state of humanity and to tell a story with wry humor for his hero's troubling predicament. |
