Bücher von George Macdonald

Phantastes, one of George MacDonald's most important and enduring works, chronicles the adventures of Anodos, a young man of twenty-one, in fairyland where he wrestles with tree-spirits, the shadow, giants, and monsters while encountering dancing statues, fairies, and other magical beings. Dreamlike and whimsical, the tale is ultimately a quest for freedom that can only come with the ultimate sacrifice. This Warbler Classics edition includes a biographical timeline.

There are two of MacDonald's fairy tales in this collection from 1862. The goblin Toadstool and the fairy Pease blossom embark on the most bizarre mission: to entice a boy and a girl to Faery so they can be brought before the Fairyland Queen because her subjects are too well-behaved to be amusing. Once upon a time, the Queen of Fairyland had a sudden longing to have a mortal or two at her Court. She fixed upon two to bring to Fairyland, but how were they to be brought? "I have heard that you have pretty ways of doing things; so you may try." Alice was the daughter of the squire, a pretty, good-natured girl whom her friends called fairy-like. One rosy summer evening she lay gazing at the wall opposite her window with tears in her eyes. All around them was a vast, hilly landscape. She was unable to even determine where they had originated from. She responds, "The author must accompany you, he sees." From every leaf and petal of these, from every branch tip and tendril, drops of bright water. As they went on, the diamond drops turned to half-liquid pearls, and the water went to sleep.

Sometimes we choke on the hors d'oeuvres at a biblical meal and miss the main course. The rich, profound, and uplifting message of biblical scriptures serves as the main course. In the end, you leave the biblical truth banquet feeling hungry and frustrated.Three appetizers are presented to us in today's devotional reading from the Bible, but they actually side dishes rather than main meals.If a person does not make an effort, he is left to do evil and pay the price. Our sinful ideas are our living sins, while our wrongdoings are our dead works.In response to his forerunner's skepticism, the Lord sent a messenger back who had witnessed what he was doing in order to awaken or strengthen his understanding that his kingdom was not of this world.The Lord's remarks seemed to indicate that he didn't need to worry about his own security. There are numerous explanations for why Jesus of Nazareth was discovered in God's temple.Gospel is the good news that even the greatest sinners have hope-hope for reconciliation, forgiveness, and holiness. It is alive and active, piercing to the division of the soul and spirit, and sharper than a two-edged sword.
