Description
Would you recognize an angel if you saw one? The majority of earth's inhabitants believe in Angels. Yet so few of us can claim to have seen one. Why? Perhaps it's because in order to encounter one, we first have to learn what to look for, and how to look! We live in a world where the natural and supernatural overlap. Angels are constantly on mission from God, and constantly at work in this world. From the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation, Scripture is filled with hundreds of references to these wondrous creatures. In this creative work, Scot McKnight explores what the Bible says - and doesn't say - about these majestic beings. And that's deeply important, because angels are still on mission today. They express God's love, confirm His presence, and even lead humans in redemptive worship. Don't just believe in angels. Learn how to recognise these messengers of God that are all around us and know how God might be using them to affect our lives.

Fascinating topic that loses steam in the execution. To me, it read like a research paper: this source says. . . ., here's an anecdote that has been relayed to me . . . , here's a Bible verse . . . . Nothing compelling and honestly not that interesting.
Full Disclosure--Net Gallery and the publisher provided me with a digital ARC of this book. This is my honest review.
