Summary

Summary

It has been over twenty years since the publication of The Ragamuffin Gospel, a book many claim as the shattering of God's grace into their lives. Since that time, Brennan Manning has been dazzingly faithful in preaching and writing variations on that singular theme, "Yes, Abba is very fond of you!" But today the crowds are gone and the lights are dim, the patches on his knees have faded. If he ever was a ragamuffin, truly it is now. In this his final book, Brennan roves back his past, honoring the lives of the people closest to him, family and friends who've known the saint and the sinner, the boy and the man. Far from some chronological timeline, these memories are witness to the truth of life by one who has lived it.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Brennan’s memoir is at once unvarnished and confessional, grippingly honest and poignantly tender. An unguarded peek into a life marked by foibles and blessings, gifts and pain, joy and regret. But always, in every paragraph, grace. Brennan has lived it, experienced it, and grasps the extraordinary power of God’s great gift.” Max Lucado, New York Times bestselling author of Fearless and Outlive Your Life
“Manning’s dispassionate voice evokes trust…At points the narration feels tired and obligatory, as if he simply doesn’t want to talk anymore. Conversely, that is the book’s appeal. There’s no cutting corners, no spinmeistering. If the book could be defined as a psalm, it would read, ‘How pleasant it is when fellow travelers of faith can read another’s story and hear the ring of truth and, conquering that, still believe.’” Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Maurice England narrates with clear delivery and a wry tone. His voice is deep and powerful, smoothly shifting from the whimsical to the intimate and engaging the listener.” Publishers Weekly (audio review)
“In honest and sincere tones, Maurice England narrates the equally honest and sincere memoir of Father Brennan Manning…In England’s gravelly voice, one hears something of Manning’s age, his wisdom, and, at times, even his regrets…England’s easygoing voice brings a sense of authenticity to this first-person account of Manning’s life.” AudioFile
“While it may very well be Brennan Manning’s parting word to us, All Is Grace is no deathbed confession. In these soul-stirring pages, Brennan testifies once again of a stubborn, messy grace that does not cleanse us as much as it stains us and marks us forever as one precious to the Most High God…All Is Grace is the book for all who stumble.” Karen Spears Zacharias, author of Will Jesus Buy Me a Double-Wide?
