This book honestly and transparently addresses these issues that are often overlooked or avoided in discussions of contemporary spiritual life and experience. For many, the life of faith is not what they thought it would be and they continue to wrestle with hard questions with little hope for finding clear answers. In this book you’ll walk with Abraham, the father of faith, in a narrative approach to discipleship that addresses life’s realities with biblical insight to help you understand your own journey of faith.
