Hi, I'm Susie Larson.

Here's the podcast from Middays with Susie Larson.

Enjoy the conversation.

It's only just a matter of.

It's only just a matter of time.

So the back row is you glide because walking just won't do dance.

You don't have to know how to ever since, ever since we've got you late.

Welcome, welcome to middays. I'm Susie Larson. Thanks so much for tuning in. I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk.

Deep in your understanding of God's word and that heighten your awareness of God's real presence in your life.

We're talking today about some of the great paradoxes of the Christian faith, that God became

a man, that though he is holy and spotless, his love goes to those who seem to deserve it

the least.

Though he plans to redeem our stories, he still enters our very present grief with us.

And then there's the paradox of grace.

My guest today writes this.

While grace is the news we most long to hear, it's one of the hardest things to grasp in our lives with God.

Jen Pollock-Michel joins me today to talk about her brilliant book, and I mean it when I say brilliant,

surprised by paradox, the promise of and

in an either or world. This book, I want to tell you, you know, I read lots and lots of books

for this show. This book to me is a work of art, and I can't wait for you to hear what Jen

has to say. I'm also so grateful to Interversity Press for offering us 10, count them,

10 copies to give away today.
