Do you have to give up studying Scripture when you no longer believe in its literal interpretation? Can you still believe this book is sacred even while renegotiating your relationship to the church? In \u003ci\u003eKnock at the Sky, \u003c\/i\u003e Liz Charlotte Grant offers compelling answers to these questions and more in this deeply personal commentary on the book of Genesis. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Braiding together encounters with the natural world, Jewish midrash, and art criticism, Grant makes familiar Sunday school stories strange and offers a fresh vision for reading Scripture after deconstruction. For those who have known the book of Genesis as a weapon in the culture wars, Grant interprets the Bible's inspired book of beginnings as a work of art. Lyrical, insightful, and highly original, \u003ci\u003eKnock at the Sky\u003c\/i\u003e offers readers a capacious model for seeking God through Scripture even as one's faith continues to evolve. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"In this book, you too have permission to question the sacred without fearing . . . unbelief. Knock loudly. . . . Reject answers that do not admit complication. Seek the resonance at the base of the story. The seeking is the point. Because there, in your wandering, God is.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLiz Charlotte Grant \u003c\/b\u003eis an award-winning essayist whose work has been published in \u003ci\u003eThe Revealer\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSojourners\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBrevity\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eChristianity Today\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHippocampus\u003c\/i\u003e, and elsewhere.
