Picking Up the Pieces: When Faith and Culture Collide

by Rev. Dr. Alva F. Hohl Jr.

 

Alva Hohl offers engaging reflections on Christian life and faith. Born of years of experience as a Pastor and Teacher in the United Church of Christ, individuals and church groups will be enriched by engaging Rev. Hohl’s thoughtful and well written essays. The discussion/reflection questions he provides will help readers connect Hohl’s reflections with their own experiences. This is a wonderful church adult education resource.

-Dr. John M. Bracke, Professor Emeritus, Eden Theological Seminary

Picking Up the Pieces: When Faith and Culture Collide is an educational resource for the church. It is filled with theological reflections on life situations and issues calling the reader to be engaged.  Questions at the end of each essay help the reader focus on the particular essence or message.

However, Picking Up the Pieces: When Faith and Culture Collide is not only a resource for the church; it can be used for private devotions or meditation or with a study group.

The essays come from a series of reflections the author wrote for his church newsletter. Some readers have found comfort in the essays, some had their consciences pierced, and some were moved to consider new behavior. The essays are meant to help the reader reflect and see life and faith differently.
