In reply to Ethel Jackson. It's getting harder these days, Ethel. I would recommend searching the Christian Writer's Guild, which offers good, practical help. Thank you for the kind comments. --Philip

Dear Philip I read ur book – What’s so Amazing about Grace – i was very touched with your insight into the ‘human condition’ – i thought the book was amazing. Also I have read devotionals u have written – they always touch a cord in the soul. I have a draft for a book for parents i have been writing for years – recently i thought of writing to u to ask what advice u could give me about getting it published as i don’t have the means to do it myself.

Truly an amazing read. What is slowly happening over there is fantastic. The Holy word affects all who hear it to the effect that these people’s faith in God HAS moved mountains and will move even more in the future. I say praise the Holy name of Jesus.

In reply to Hadassah. I cannot tell you how humbling this is. Faith like yours keeps mine going, for I have a glimmer of an idea what this decision meant for you. --Philip

I was once a Muslim. I converted while in the university. It took me two years to make my conversion known to my family members. They are all Christians now except for my father and one of my sisters (a family of 5 children- 4 girls and 1 boy). But I know He that started a good work in my family will bring it to completion.
Mr Yancey, your books have been of great help in my Christian journey. I really love Rumours of Another World and What’s So Amazing about Grace.
God bless you, sir.

Dear Mr Yancey,
This is not a comment on your recent post, but for years (!) I have wanted to write to you to thank you for your books, and unseen your blog. ‘Reaching for an invisible God’ and ‘What’s so amazing about grace?’ had a profound effect on me. It felt like I was reading my own thoughts and questions sometimes. Thank you so much for your honesty. I thank God for you and how he has used you to help me. God bless you and keep you. AMC

I really appreciate your last paragraph. The Holy Spirit did do just fine, and He will restore everything. I am here in China witnessing His glorious work and testify to it.

In reply to Tania Wang. I'll try to get that to you, or at least the formal name of the book in China. Philip

In reply to Mary Dare.

Speaking of Eugene, there’s a lovely video of a conversation on the Psalms between him and Bono: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l40S5e90KY

I don’t think there’s any danger of Jesus leaving China. The more the government clamps down, the more the church grows.

It was as good to discover you as Eugene H. Peterson in Montana and Scott Hahn in Illinois. I m happy to see them tearing down crucifix s in China as long as Jesus does not go with them. I love love and Viennese waltz s. I was born and bred in Chicago. In Jesus and The Divine Intelligence. Mary Dare
