Essential. Critical. Revolutionary. Be prepared for Christian missions strategist Luis Bush to change the way you think about missions forever. Twenty years ago, Bush introduced the concept of the 10/40 Window (an area between 10 degrees and 40 degrees latitude where the gospel is least present) and radically altered the landscape of missions. Now, Bush is urging Christians to reprioritize and redirect their energies at the youth of nations. A great opportunity exists to develop and mobilize a new generation of Christ followers, especially those between the ages of 4 to 14; This is the 4/14 Window.
Now finally collected into a single volume, the Sherbrookes trilogy—Possession, Sherbrookes, and Stillness—is Nicholas Delbanco's most celebrated achievement. Centering upon one New England clan and their estate in southwestern Vermont—a full thousand acres, including the bleak and chilly Big House, from which the volatile Sherbrookes have such trouble escaping—these books form a virtuoso portrait of the love, pride, resentment, and even madness we inherit from our families. Written in his characteristically opulent, bravura prose, Delbanco is here revealed as a Henry James for our time: a passionate cataloger of human strength and frailty. Edited and revised by the author some thirty years after its first publication, the trilogy—“made new” as the single-volume Sherbrookes—can now be rediscovered by a new generation of readers.
