How to inhabit time : understanding the past, facing the future, living faithfully now / James K.A. Smith.

Summary:

"Popular speaker and award-winning author James K. A. Smith helps Christians and the church develop a sense of "temporal awareness" that is attuned to the texture of history, the vicissitudes of life, and the tempo of the Spirit. Smith shows that awakening to the spiritual significance of time is crucial for orienting faith in the 21st century"-- Provided by publisher.
