Excerpts

From Page 10:

To this day, I think my question was sweeter than his response, which was less than gracious. But then, it may be that my sin was greater than his. I apologized later. He was, after all, a guest in our church and my pastors friend, so I realized that an apology was in order, especially since in our earlier conversation I had sort of accused him of insulting the intelligence of the whole congregation by twisting scripture.

My apology predictably met with the same grace as did my questions: I recall something about my not being the first woman to attack him. Luckily I was sufficiently chagrined by my earlier behavior that i didn't voice what popped into my head: "I'm sure I won't be the last!" Small victory, but it helped: I felt better--redeemed somehow, from my earlier transgression by resisting this new temptation. (Not theologically correct, I know. I'm just telling you how I felt.)

From page 33:
Perhaps it's when we feel the most inadequate that the 'I don't cuss and I don't chew' philosophy appears so attractive. It's much less demanding, we think, than giant slaying. It certainly is less demanding. It is also less glorious. To my knowledge there are no songs which celebrate a quite admirable abstinence from cussing and chewing.

From page 94:

In this bright and beautiful home that God created for His family, where Adam walked clothed in glory, there was a tragic day when the light went out. We have all heard about it. On that horrible day, when Adam chose to act on the words of the rebellious angel, Lucifer, he effectively became his servant and put God’s enemy in charge on this earth, and the sovereign God—because He is righteous—had to honor his action. The glory left, and Adam, horrified, realized that he was naked and vulnerable.

From Page 148:

In the book of Matthew, Jesus is sitting on a hilltop, looking around at a small group of ordinary people...a couple of rough fishermen, a government worker, a couple of rowdy guys he calls the 'sons of thunder,' and others, and he began to teach them some important things about light. He told them, 'You are light.'

They are? He can't be serious!

Comments

"This book is brilliantly simple, surprisingly deep, and clearly understandable. Fay Rowe does not make the reader jump through hoops or run blindly through a maze. Rather, she defines a distinct path for us to travel. Along this path are many traditional stumbling blocks that she converts into stepping stones; instead of falling on our faces, we rise to a new level of understanding."

"I feel privileged and very blessed to have had your manuscript put into my hands. I took time off to read it, carefully that is, and it brought me close in touch with my Lord. Many others who read this work, I believe, will have the same testimony of encouragement and a closer walk with God. It is a profound, well documented piece, equal in both its scholarly and spiritual merits. 'Dog ears' are used to highlight pages on which I paused for breath because of the profundity of what I was reading."

"Fay Rowe challenges us to look beyond what we can see to the character of God. She inspires us to be like Abraham, David, Meshach, and Abednego and defy a world that says God doesn't mean what he says. What's In a Name forces us not to just believe in faith, but to live it based in the truth of God's character. This is a book every Christian must read."
