Trust in the Lord: Reflections of Jesus Christ
- Price
- $14.99
In this collection of personal reflections, Tulane accounting professor Deen Kemsley shares intimate glimpses of how he came to see Christ in ordinary moments—a newborn's smile, a snowfall, a survivor's courage. Written partly before and after Hurricane Katrina destroyed his New Orleans apartment, these eight devotional essays explore losing tenure, raising nine children, forgiveness, gratitude, and sacrifice. The recurring theme: God is there, he hears our prayers, and he loves us—and Christ's power to heal is deeper than our deepest pain.
- Written by a Wall Street-trained accounting professor who lost tenure at Columbia—faith meets the high-pressure academic and financial world
- Begun in a New Orleans apartment that Hurricane Katrina later destroyed; the storm becomes the book's central metaphor
- Ecumenically warm: quotes C.S. Lewis and Emerson, accessible to any Christian reader
- Everyday reflections—a newborn's smile, falling snow, a stranded island—that reveal Christ in ordinary life
Perfect for an adult Christian—LDS or otherwise—facing career setback, loss, or uncertainty who wants short, warm devotional reflections that see Christ in everyday life.
