A message to stir the embers of a dying faith. Given the number of
people who’ve been “saved,” you’d think the world was
becoming a brighter place. It could be, too, if more people would
grasp the joy of losing themselves in service to God and each
other. People like Christoph Blumhardt, who, in his quest to get to
the essentials of faith, burns away the religious trappings of
modern piety like so much chaff. Blumhardt writes with unabashed
fervor, but his passion encourages rather than intimidates. His
witness influenced theological giants like Dietrich Bonhoeffer and
Karl Barth. But Action in Waiting is not theology; it is too blunt,
too earthy, too real. Its “active expectation” of God’s
kingdom shows us that the object of our hope is not relegated to
some afterlife. Today, in our world, it can come into its own –
if only we are ready.
