Publisher's Synopsis
If I'm having trouble trusting in God's goodness, how may I approach Him?
Our beliefs can be quite formulaic at times. Many times, we believe that God will do X, Y, and Z if we do A, B, and C. We cross things off the "Good Christian Checklist," having faith that everything will work out and that we won't face many hardships. However, we frequently lose faith in God when our experiences invariably diverge from that conviction. Kate D. Crepeau is familiar with finding faith in the midst of suffering following a string of drastically changing events in her life, including a heartbreaking diagnosis. Author Kate D. Crepeau explores many facets of the Christian religion that are meaningful to Christians as she digs into the nuances of this thought-provoking book. Every chapter encourages readers to consider their own spiritual journeys, from the suffering of uncertainty to the deep joy of surrender. With a focus on God's love and presence, the book skillfully navigates through suffering, healing, and the pursuit of divine purpose. "The Excellent Christian Paradox" provides perspectives that test, uplift, and ultimately result in a more profound comprehension of faith, regardless of whether you're an experienced Christian or someone looking for guidance.
