Coles God In The Flames: A Modern Spiritual History of Self-Immolation at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
In the searing heart of protest and prayer, fire becomes both destroyer and divine revelation. God in the Flames offers a bold, unflinching exploration of self-immolation as one of the most radical spiritual acts in modern history. From the iconic image of Vietnamese Buddhist monk Thích Quảng Đức burning in Saigon in 1963 to the fiery protest of Rev. Charles Moore in Texas and beyond, theologian and activist Rev. Dr. Jeff Hood traces the sacred threads running through these acts of ultimate sacrifice. Blending theology, history, mysticism, and personal reflection, Hood asks profound questions: Can God be found in the flames? Is self-immolation a form of prayer, martyrdom, or divine encounter? What does it mean when the body itself becomes a burning bush - a living testament to justice, resistance, and transcendent faith? This modern spiritual history challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable intersection of faith and fire, protest and presence, suffering and sanctity. Written with prophetic intensity and deep compassion, God in the Flames invites us to see the divine not only in stillness and light, but also in the consuming blaze of radical love and costly witness.
