Burning Down the Fireproof Hotel

An Invitation to the Beautiful Life

De: Cary Campbell Umhau

Narrado por: Cary Campbell Umhau

Cary Umhau had everything she'd ever wanted - beautiful children, a healthy bank account, even, she'd been told, a ticket to heaven. Yet something felt desperately wrong. Somewhere on the road to the American Dream, her happy Christian life had become a fireproof fortress - one that kept the world's pain at bay but left her all too safe from God's burning love. And she learned that he would do anything to break her out. Including - it seemed - breaking her. Burning Down the Fireproof Hotel is part memoir, part manifesto for the spacious life that's waiting for all of us beyond our private prisons.

Loved this book!

Delighted listening to this book in one day! Indeed it is vibrantly written in 3D color. So encouraging to read of the humble rawness if the author’s faith stepping out with grace and kindness smack dab into the middle of rawest humanity. The book is full of fun, adventure, humor & honesty. Love her spontaneity and ability to listen (+ obey!) God’s leading in her serving of those people most dear to His heart. Your book reminds me of Frederick Buechner’s quote “Your vocation in life is where your greatest joy meets the worlds greatest need” appreciated you sharing your journey with us! You inspire me to walk by faith not fear & to trust even before leaning on my understanding. Thank you Cary Umhau!
