The Things They Carried (Tim O'Brien, 1990)
BY: Marsena Konkle

The Valley of Vision: A Collection of Puritan Prayers and Devotions (Arthur Bennett, 1975)
BY: Denis Haack
Why would a true believer need something written down before they could speak to their heavenly Father? Prayer, we were taught, should not be read from a page, but should spring spontaneously out of the believer’s heart.

There are tulips on my desk, and I saw my first robin yesterday, clear signals that winter is losing its grip on the landscape. The newspaper reported an ice jam on a nearby river that forced the closure of several roads. Chunks of ice the size of dinner tables slammed through a county park. Even something as glorious of the arrival of spring is never as perfectly smooth as we would hope in this broken world. We are, as my spiritual mentor used to say, glorious ruins.
Finding what it means to flourish as broken human being in an imperfect world is what Ransom is about. We believe in Jesus Christ, though often find ourselves dismayed at what passes for Christianity in our postmodern world. We hope what you find on this site will be helpful in your own pilgrimage, regardless of where you happen to find yourself at the moment.
