Book Review of Simple Faith: Stories from Guatemala

Simple Faith: Stories from Guatemala


Some of life's experiences cry out to be told--thus are born STORIES. In Simple Faith: Stories from Guatemala, Philip Schotzko shares his pastoral experience amoung the highlands Indians of Guatemala. "Stories of Faith" show how a resilient faith carries people through their everyday struggles for justice and peace. "Stories fo Ferment" touch upon the harsher realities of economic need, political oppression, sickness and death: out of pain and loss new seeds of hope take root and grow. Finally, "Stories of Frivolity" give the lighter side, where time is "wasted" in the sheer delight of living.
