About this title

Synopsis

This book is for those of us who have failed at being doubt-free but whose passion for God remains steadfast. It's for those who have been confused by the world -- and perhaps even by their own desires -- and still long to connect with a loving God who forgives and embraces us. It's for those who wonder at how our personal failures and uncertainties can make our faith mature -- and yet who can believe that somehow these wrestlings also make our need for God complete. Combining incredibly candid reflections and insights from the author with rich reminders for every man and woman's spiritual journey, Deepest Thanks, Deeper Apologies springs from a deep desire not to explain mystery, or to remove doubt, but to encourage mystery and raise doubt -- for all who dare to be honest.
