"Ordinary Glory: Finding Grace in the Commonplace": a book of reflections on the extraordinary potential of an ordinary life. "Ordinary Glory: Finding Grace in the Commonplace" is the creation of published author Dane Fowlkes, who has led anything but a dull existence-from initiation into an African tribe in northern Kenya where he is known as Jilo, a name that means "a season of celebration," to living near Gandhi's ashram on the Sabarmati River in Gujarat, India. Dane served as pastor of several churches before being appointed for missionary service in Kenya. He worked with an unreached tribe in northern Kenya and equipped existing churches around Mount Kenya to establish new ones, later becoming dean of Kenya Baptist Theological College and leading a national program of theological education for pastors. After two terms of service in Kenya, he moved to India, before returning to the United States. Dane earned a doctor of philosophy degree from the University of the Free State in Bloemfontein, South Africa. He now works with an international relief organization.
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Dane Fowlkes's new book reveals the presence of God in the midst of daily life. He embraces difficult questions and garden-variety experiences as equally essential components of our lives, rather than as enemies that seek to destroy us or bore us to tears. Ordinary Glory inspires laughter, hope, and transforms the way we view the unremarkable moments that fill much of our our lives.
