The Hope of the Gospel

Name: The Hope of the Gospel
Author: George MacDonald

George MacDonald (1824–1905) was a Scottish author, poet, and Congregational minister. Briefly a pastor, he turned to writing and lecturing, producing fairy tales and novels that pioneered modern fantasy and deeply influenced C. S. Lewis. His theology found its most direct expression in his sermons: our library holds his Unspoken Sermons in three series and The Hope of the Gospel, works of imaginative, searching Christian reflection.
