Always a Guest is a pitch-perfect sermon collection for these anxious times.—Foreword Reviews
In these anxious times BBT travels light, but her humor is reassuring, her scriptural insights challenging, and her breadth of vision inspiring. Always a Guest is the guest who becomes family, even in a pandemic.—Spectrum
Serving as a pastor of a church in great transition and navigating leading and being Christ s church in the throes of a pandemic, I strongly recommend Barbara Brown Taylor s book, Always a Guest. In each chapter, a well-crafted sermon and a reminder to stay in God s Word. In each chapter, a priceless reminder to trust that the Holy Spirit will make necessary connections. In each chapter, a reminder that we are always guests wading in cavernous pools of God s good love in Jesus Christ. —The Presbyterian Outlook—
