Description: There be dragons all over the Bible. From the great
sea monsters of Genesis to the great dragon of Revelation, dragons
appear as the Bible opens and closes, and they pop their grisly
heads up at various junctures in between. How did they get there
and what on earth (or indeed in heaven) are they doing there? This
is a book for those who find standard discussions of faith and
suffering frustrating. Andy Angel opens up the rich biblical
tradition of living with God in the midst of suffering. He takes
the reader on a journey of exploration through biblical texts that
are often overlooked on account of their strangeness--texts about
dragons. He shows how these peculiar passages open up a language of
prayer through suffering in which people share their anger,
weariness, disillusionment, and even joy in suffering with God.
Angel explores how such ""weird"" Scriptures open up a whole new
way of praying and reveal a God who approves of honest
spirituality, a spirituality that the Bible holds open but too many
of its interpreters do not.
