"Provocations contains a little of everything from Kierkegaard's prodigious output: his famously cantankerous (yet wryly humorous) attacks on what he calls the ""mediocre shell"" of conventional Christianity, his brilliantly pithy parables, his wise (and witty) sayings. Most significantly, it brings to a new generation a man whose writings pare away the fluff of modern spirituality to reveal the basics of the Christ-centered life: decisiveness, obedience, and recognition of the truth."

Reviews for Provocations: Spiritual Writings of Kierkegaard

In a culture awash in religious silliness, Kierkegaard s bracing metaphors expose our mediocrities and energize us with a clarified sense of what it means to follow Jesus.--Eugene Peterson, author, Subversive Spirituality
