Todo empezó por querer leer un buen libro... ¿Era mucho pedir? En 1935, de camino a Londres, Allen Lane se detuvo en un andén del ferrocarril para buscar algo interesante que leer durante el viaje. La ofertase limitaba a revistas populares y libros en tapa blanda de mala calidad. La desilusión y el posterior disgusto de Lane ante los títulos disponibles lo llevaron a inventar el libro de bolsillo, a fundar una empresa y a cambiar el mundo. «Creíamos que existía un enorme público para los libros hechos con inteligencia a bajo precio, y lo apostamos todo por ello.» -Sir Allen Lane, 1902-1970, fundador de Penguin Books Los hábitos de lectura han cambiado desde 1935, pero en Penguin seguimos creyendo en publicar los mejores libros parael disfrute de todos, y en que los buenos libros publicados con pasión y responsabilidad mejoran el mundo. Emma cuenta la historia de una inteligente y laboriosa joven empeñada en hacer de celestina de todas sus amistades. Cuando su institutriz, amiga y confidente decide contraer matrimonio, Emma Woodhouse se queda sola con sus sentimientos y se enfrenta al vacío de su existencia, así como a la penosa tarea de intentar que los demás lleven una vida tan perfecta como la suya. Todos sus trabajos de manipulación sentimental crean a su alrededor una telaraña de enredos, malentendidos y confusiones que ponen a prueba su confianza en sí misma. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Jane Austen's best-selling novel, Emma, is a romantic comedy about love, marriage, and personal growth. Set in Highbury, England, in the early 19th century, Emma Woodhouse is a beautiful, clever, and single young heiress who is very content with her life and has no aspirations of marriage. What makes her happiest is acting as a matchmaker and interfering in the romantic lives of friends and family. However, after an entertaining sequence of comic mishaps and misunderstandings, Emma learns that what she wants is right in front of her. With its imperfect but delightful heroine and witty and subtle exploration of relationships, marriage, and social status, Emma is frequently referred to as one of Jane Austen's most significant works.Shipping Notes

Deftly weaving stories of her life into solid biblical teaching on love, grace
Format: Hardcover
The Gospel Comes With a House Key may be one of the most thought provoking books I have read in the last year (and I read a lot). It is part memoir, part biblical theology, part polemic about the use God wants to put our homes to. Deftly weaving stories of her life into solid biblical teaching on love, grace, mercy, personal sin, and, yes, hospitality Rosaria Butterfield kept me compulsively turning the pages. It’s not just that she is a deep thinker with a thorough grasp of how to convey ideas clearly and compellingly. She is an excellent story-teller who also is an excellent writer; and those two do not always go together. She drew me in to one story in particular that she did not finish until toward the end of the book, but rather than finding that frustrating it led me deeper into her broader story, and subtly, her broader argument that I need to radically rethink how I view my home and my time. After all it is all God’s and I am meant to find my ultimate joy in service to Him and in His love.
Apparently my home can be a powerful tool for me to feel His love and to convey His love to others. Want to know exactly why? Want to see how that works out in the context on one family in one particular instance with broad application for all Christians? Then by all means I invite you to Butterfield home to eat with them, play with them, pray and read the Bible with them, to weep and struggle with them, just as they invite everyone they know to do the same.
Thank you Rosaria. You’ve given me and my wife a lot to think about and a needed challenge; that actually looks like a lot of fun!

Helpful Book
Format: Hardcover
Rosaria Butterfield shared her story of conversion in her memoir The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert. It impacted me so deeply. I couldn’t wait to get my hands on her second book, The Gospel Comes With A House Key.
Rosaria Butterfield, former lesbian and English professor, converted to Christ in 1999. She is now a pastor’s wife, a homeschool mom, and a writer and speaker.
In The Gospel Comes With a House Key, Rosaria addresses the topic of hospitality. For so many, the word “hospitality” is scary. We start picturing beautiful homes and Instagram-worthy charcuterie boards. But Rosaria says that biblical hospitality is a call to something different. It’s a call to so much more.
Rosaria illustrates what ordinary hospitality looks like. She uses personal stories and life experiences to show how hospitality can be a lifeline for lost friends and neighbors. Her testimony becomes her ministry. Rosaria makes room at the table for all kinds of people: young or old, wealthy or poor. She talks to people who think differently and act differently than her.
While reading through the book, the one question I had was about the abundance of personal stories. Yes, they added a personal touch and were quite powerful. But the sheer number of them overshadowed any biblical exposition of the theme of hospitality. A balance of story and exposition would have placed the spotlight directly on the work of Christ and opened up more possibilities for the reader to practice hospitality, even when it looks quite different from Rosaria.
This mild quip aside, this book will be a breath of fresh air for Christians as they realize that their everyday messy lives can be shared with others. Hospitality isn’t about entertaining people. It is about using the gifts God has given us: our homes, tables, and lives to show an unbelieving world who Jesus really is. Hospitality shows a skeptical world what faith really looks like.
Both of Rosaria’s books have expanded my thinking on hospitality, and I am so grateful she had the courage to share her story.
