Publisher's Description
Tired of church as you’ve known it? Thirsty for a fresh look at Christian faith? American singer/songwriter and author Tyler Blanski was, too. So he set out on a Holy Pilgrimage to rediscover the saints, stars, and beauty of Christianity for the twenty-first century. Rich with deep application for living in the modern world, When Donkeys Talk is an invitation to become enchanted again with Christ and his world. Tyler reminds us that God works in unexpected, unusual, and miraculous ways and that he inhabits and speaks through the wondrous world he has made. Blanski redefines “magical” to help us see that the world is guided by a hand greater than science and materialism. Using scripture, the wisdom of the church fathers, and respected theologians and Christian thinkers from centuries past, as well as a creative and humorous narrative, you will find the wonder of our ancient faith still alive and well.
Endorsements (6)
“An invitation to let God blow your mind, confound your logic, shatter your boxes, and leave you marveling at how small our imaginations are and how big our God is.”
“Funny, insightful, and compelling, When Donkeys Talk is a faithful guide into a world of miracles, mystery, and Eucharist, leading a new generation toward a holy renaissance of the saints of yore.”
“Who knew that you could present powerful Christian apologetics with tongue firmly in cheek? Tyler Blanski's book does just what St. Augustine says our rhetoric should do: he informs, he persuades, and he delights.”
“A real tour d' force!”
“An imaginative and persuasive apology for a Christianity in which God is not an afterthought, Christ is the indispensable key to creation, and the unexamined metaphors of modern secularism are never allowed to drown out the radical language of the Gospel.”
“A compelling Pilgrim's Progress for today, uncovering divine truth in a way that will challenge modern readers, but also invite them into a landscape of powerful beauty they have secretly been longing to inhabit. A book to savor and to share.”
