Book Rec. - July 11, 2020

Book Rec- The Very Good Gospel by Lisa Sharon Harper

What is shalom? How can we bring it to the world? These questions and more are answered as Lisa Sharon Harper teaches about the first three chapters of Genesis. Shalom with yourself, with God, with others, and with creation are explained in great detail. Hope for a hurting world is held out to be acted upon in order to usher in the very goodness of the gospel.

In The Very Good Gospel, many of my misconceptions were corrected. I did not properly understand the very goodness referenced in Genesis regarding creation. My knowledge of the depth of the Hebrew word shalom was also lacking. Lisa Sharon Harper paints a vivid picture of shalom and provides a road map for ushering shalom into the world in the present. This book is a must-read for beginning to fully grasp God’s vision for all of creation.
