The Sandwich

Wicked sense of humour and astounding craftsmanship. ... Writing that refreshes. That's what Glenn Myers does with glee. Andrew Goh.

The Christian life is mostly like being a sandwich filling. Pressing down from above? The promises of God. Squeezing us from below? Life. Here's a guide:

        Hearing wrongly from God

        Shallowness, and how to get there

        The art of prayerlessness

        Learning good sense from the minds of small children

        The shortage of spiritual heroes

        The biggest failure in the Bible

And much else, Romance, bad luck, bad luck in romance, finding yourself in the wrong church, child-rearing, and facing chronic illness - all can make God seem far away and the Christian faith unreal. Or they can be the stuff from which hope and character are built.

Welcome to the sandwich. Originally a set of magazine articles, The Sandwich is a refreshing set of discipleship articles for those of us who don't quite do it right.
