Learning to Live From the Gospels

With revealing, dynamic insight, Eugenia Price searches for God’s own answers for modern times. The familiar Gospel words breathe with new life as she cuts through the superficialities of those who attempt to deemphasize the Bible and draws up sharp guidelines that twentieth-century Christians can follow. Each of Miss Price’s favorite Gospel verses is included in the book, followed by her reflections on them. Her exposition of the beloved King James passages rings with authenticity and poetic authority. In the preface to Learning to Live from the Gospels, Miss Price writes “You will find little or no information here concerning who wrote and who did not write the Gospels as we know them. You will find no scientific verification of the miracles—not even a defence of them. God’s activities need no defence from us. There are no scholarly apologetics, no exegeses of the more obscure passages of Scripture. I do not know how to do any of this. I find it enough to attempt to learn how to live by the passages I do understand. Having met Christ when I was well along on my earthly journey, what has held my interest from the beginning of my life with Him has not been how to analyze or criticize the Bible, but how to learn to live from it … I know of no better place to learn how to live than from the four provocative Gospel accounts of the earthly life of the God who loved us enough to become one of us.”
