Ordinary Life, Extraordinary God: Dreams, Visions, and Miracles in the Everyday

Description: Ordinary Life, Extraordinary God by Louise Gray Present reality is transfigured when it encounters another world in this one, disseminating the miraculous in the ordinary every day to effect a process of limitless transformation and possibility. Here is living witness to the bounty of a God who is alive and ever-present in the universe and infinitely available to all, Christian or not. In all his grandeur he appears to the most ordinary, not just the giants of the faith, in his commitment of inextricability from the human race whom he calls beloved. Cross-pollinating the here and now with the extraordinary God of the Old and New Testaments, this chronicle marries memoir and academic research effortlessly. The capacity of God to do absolutely anything at any time for anyone without blowing his own trumpet, both masks and marks the power and extent of his love to improve human circumstances. Over a lifetime of difficulties, dreams, visions, miracles, and doctoral research on God as love itself, the author joins Job whose response to God after a prolonged encounter is, ""I know that you can do anything, and no one can stop you"" (Job 42:1). FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Louise Gray is now semi-retired, after a lifetime of work in secondary and tertiary education and ministry. The latter is ongoing, as is her relationship with the ever-present Rabbi extraordinaire. Review "In a world so often blinded by distraction, pace, and self-sufficiency, Louise invites us to join her in opening our eyes and spirits to the wonder of the God who is love, everywhere and always. At times painfully honest and humbling, Louises personal stories interweave with her passionate research to reveal a way of living that enjoys the supernatural in-breaking of Christ in the midst of daily life." --Chris Helm, school chaplain "There is nothing ordinary about this book. Gray writes with passion and clarity. The fluidity of her poetic style is an invitation to read with an open mind. I found this extraordinary love story of God and humanity truly compelling. . . . I highly recommend this book." --Shirley Osborn, former pastor, St Martins Community Church "In this life story, God continues to search for Louise Gray in ordinary and complex situations with love, expressed in visions, dreams, answered prayer, friends, Scripture, and literature. As her situation changes, God reveals himself as being both within and beyond, as one who died our death and the one who gives us life, who changes us but holds precious our very selves." --Helen Brough, family physician "This book will leave you with a hunger for supernatural encounters and the knowledge that in seasons of wilderness and trial, Gods unfailing love and divine providence can be trusted. A beautifully written book that will stir your heart to seek the God of miracles." --Shelley Hermens, pastor, Equip Church Leongatha Review Quote "In a world so often blinded by distraction, pace, and self-sufficiency, Louise invites us to join her in opening our eyes and spirits to the wonder of the God who is love, everywhere and always.
