Reseña del libro "Divine Disruption: Advent Reflections For The Digital Age (en Inglés)"
In Divine Disruptions: Advent Reflections in a Digital Age, lay minister and attorney Todd Bouldin provides contemporary seekers and modern believers in Jesus with reflections on the accounts of the nativity story, or so called infancy narratives, in Matthew and Luke. Todd understands Advent as a time of disruption in the mundane order of things, and an invitation into something new that we could not have imagined. As in the business and tech world today, disruption seen this way is not a negative force but rather a positive one that invokes new opportunities and significant advances. The book is perfect for those wishing to have a guide or reading during the Advent and Christmas seasons, but they concern a broader range of theological and existential topics that are suitable for any season of the reader's spiritual journey. The reflections began as sermons for Todd's church almost a decade ago, and they have been revised to reflect the author's own theological and spiritual journey with the Advent and Christmas texts of Scripture. These reflections provide a creative, holistic and faithful interpretation of these texts that bear upon existential, political, psychological and spiritual issues that arise from our hearing of this nativity story in an age of chaos, disorder and disruption. The book is divided into two parts; first, reflections on the journey of the wise men to Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew, and second, reflections on the angelic announcements to Zechariah, Elizabeth and Mary in the Gospel of Luke. In these, the author leads us all on an exploration of disruption, longing and search in our own lives until we find ourselves face to face with the Christmas child.
