Ebook, 70 pages. Easy read. A Christian can ask the questions for finding why somethings seem to suddenly fall apart when everything is going your way.
It doesn't always mean the end. Sometimes giving up the familiar can change it all for the better.
From my personal journaling over the 18 months my home church searched for our new Pastor. The book includes Study/Introspective questions.
Though a Devotional with questions for individuals or groups, this book can be enjoyed as a good read without the study guide.
Chapters titles include Sudden Pressure, The Bible: A book like no other, Steeplechases, and ten more.
Each chapter builds on the theme of understanding why a Church or an individual Christian can suffer what seems like disaster, concluding with the restoration from the ruins.
Excerpt
Book excerpt:
Crash! Sunday’s attendance was chaos. Anger, shock, curiosity, and despair rocked our group. What happened?
This was the beginning of a year and a half of my home church searching for a new pastor. In desperation, I began reading the Bible, looking for truth, hope, and faithfulness. This book comes from my journal as I wrote down things I learned afresh from the Bible. In the end, I realized God was asking me whether I was walking by faith or by sight. In those eighteen months, I discovered walking by faith is more satisfying than walking by sight.
