Book Overview

The Wisdom Of God�������s Fools: Studies In Spiritual Sagacity is a book written by Edgar DeWitt Jones and published in 1916. This book is a collection of essays that explore the concept of spiritual wisdom through the lens of ""God's fools"" - individuals who are often seen as foolish or simple-minded, but who possess a deep and profound understanding of the divine.Jones draws on a variety of sources, including biblical stories, personal anecdotes, and the writings of mystics and philosophers, to explore the nature of spiritual wisdom and its relationship to faith, humility, and love. He argues that true spiritual wisdom is not the result of intellectual knowledge or worldly success, but rather is found in the humble and open-hearted acceptance of God's will.The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of spiritual wisdom. These include the importance of simplicity and humility, the role of suffering and adversity in spiritual growth, and the power of love and compassion to transform the human heart.Overall, The Wisdom Of God�������s Fools: Studies In Spiritual Sagacity is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that encourages readers to look beyond the surface of things and to seek out the deeper truths that underlie our everyday experiences. It is a timeless work that continues to resonate with readers today, nearly a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
