Wrestling with God Through Doubt and Deconstruction: Forty Days of Engaging the Bible Before Your Faith Crumbles (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781304625045)

Many circumstances can lead Christians to doubt their faith, including spiritual, emotional, or physical wounds sustained in the church. Sometimes an intellectual crisis leads to doubt. At other times, a loss or tragedy can make believers lose confidence in God's existence, goodness, or power. While the circumstances of life and the failures of the church lead many today through a process of faith "deconstruction," God seeks to heal the wounds of his children and restore the confidence and joy that some have lost. Regrettably, many who deconstruct faith do it in the company of former Christians or languishing believers. God invites us to bring our doubts, fears, and pain to him directly, and "wrestle" with him in the pages of Scripture. This book is a forty-day collection of recommended readings from the Bible with short commentary to stimulate reflection and reconciliation with God. The author invites readers to engage God on his home turf -- the Scriptures -- and wrestle with him there. Don't let faith go down without a fight. Doubters and those deconstructing faith should read this devotional collection with an open Bible and an open mind, allowing the Spirit of God to expose false teaching from the past, begin to heal traumatic wounds, and bring each one back to the love of Christ and the beauty of the gospel.
