The Hum of Angels: Listening for the Messengers of God Around Us. Scot McKnight

We do not understand the first part of the book, as it talks about believing in angels versus not believing. We were bored and do not understand how that's overly relevant. For those who do not believe, we would gently ask you to move on. We would do so not out of unkindness, but, we sometimes tire of defending our beliefs. And, really, if you didn't believe in angels, would you even pick a book of this title up, off of a shelf? Would you thumb through it? If you did, would you be looking for substance, maybe?

The second part of the book provides plenty of real-life and Biblical examples of the presence of angels.

Section three details some of the major angelic tasks. Again, there is plenty of back-up.

We like the name of the book. We like that it was written. We were frustrated with the fact that we wanted more. Instead, we were given a lot of quotes. We just felt that it was a bit much.

Quotes:

Angels reveal messages to us on earth.

God send angels to pastor us because God loves us.
