About this title

Synopsis

"Notes to Eli" are, as the author describes them, "reflections of a Samuel, still listening for the call of God." Olson�s message is that the church in the post-modern context must have a clear, focused agenda: God is central, the community gathered around the word and sacrament is fundamental, and worship needs to be participatory.

The notes in this book begin in November 2001. After April 2002, Olson writes under the diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Even though his personal situation changed dramatically after that date, his focus remained on being a pastor in a post-modern world.

The further you delve into the "Notes," the more deeply you will experience Olson�s wisdom and the more you will be captured by his vision for evangelical leadership. The notes ended in October 2002.

Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
