Searching for Sunday

I think Rachel Held Evans' goal with her book, Searching for Sunday , is to help the reader fall back in love with the church--that is, the universal/international/global church; as in the body of believers that makes up Christ's bride. I don't know if it helped me in that at all. I think it was meant to show me the beauty of the church, and there were definite glimpses. But Rachel described to me the indescribable: the mysterious beauty of Jesus Christ and the person he could be to me. She made me want to love Jesus again. Searching for Sunday is formatted into seven parts--seven sacraments: Baptism: the church tells us we are beloved Confession: the church tells us we are broken Holy Orders: the church tells us we are commissioned Communion: the church feeds us Confirmation: the church welcomes us Anointing the Sick: the church anoints us Marriage: the church unites us (Evans, Rachel Held.
