Excerpt from The Facts of Life
The present discussions, it is to be feared, are more laboured in their faith. But they are written at a spot further inland on the 'isthmus' of life, to which reference is made in the opening chapter; and travellers at that stage will make allowance for the difficulty of the road. Perhaps the march becomes lighter again further on.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the challenge of reconciling Christian faith with the often harsh realities of the world. The author argues that while intellectual arguments and apologetics have their place, the true test of faith lies in lived experience. He contends that individuals, particularly in mid-life, grapple with the apparent indifference of the world to the values and promises of the gospel. Moving beyond abstract philosophical discussions, the book confronts specific difficulties such as the problem of suffering and the existence of evil. The author explores how nature, often perceived as amoral or even immoral, can actually serve as a crucible for moral character development. He draws upon literary giants like Shakespeare to illustrate how even tragedy can point towards a deeper meaning in life. This book offers a thought-provoking exploration of faith's complexities, urging readers to embrace a holistic perspective that acknowledges both the joys and struggles of human existence. Ultimately, it suggests that genuine faith is forged not in isolation but within the crucible of a world that both challenges and affirms our deepest beliefs.
