Читать книгу Stunned by Scripture - Dr. John S. Bergsma Ph.D. - Страница 2

The Bible brought John Bergsma to the Catholic Faith, and he tells that story well. But the greatest beauty of this book is in the love John found in the Catholic Church. This is an experience I share. God’s love overflows here — in Jesus and Mary, in the saints and sacraments, in the devotional customs and rich traditions. It’s so much more than we knew before. It’s so much more than we could have imagined. My hope is that many non-Catholics will read this and come home — and many Catholics will read it and come to a deeper appreciation of all they have.

Dr. Bergsma doesn’t simply tell us the story of his journey from Calvinism to Catholicism. He allows us to learn along with his “former” self how Scripture can lead an intellectually honest Christian to the fullness of the Catholic Faith, especially when studied alongside the early Church Fathers. This book is both fascinating and enlightening, not to mention a joy to read! I encourage anyone — but especially our non-Catholic brothers and sisters — to delve into this book with an open mind and heart. You might just find yourself stunned, as well!

I’ve been waiting for a book like this — honest yet loving, challenging yet sincere, truthful yet unitive — one that I could hand to my own Evangelical friends who are longing for “more” in their churches and faith journeys. Bergsma is a great Biblical teacher because he is, first and foremost, a true, Biblical disciple. This is a work that both Evangelicals and Catholics need to read and to share, often. This little gem is the kind of book that can foster the unity that Saint Paul wrote about and our Lord desires for His children.
