Inhaltsangabe

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN LIFE DOESN'T END UP THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO?

American evangelical Christianity is a uniquely American Phenomenon. Ingrained in culture and politics, fundamentalism ascribes to strict theological and political dogmas in ways that seldom mirror our vast human experiences. That's when people of faith find themselves caught in the crosshairs of belief and real life.

Rethinking Everything When Faith and Reality Don't Make Sense is a book for real people with real questions. An intellectual and emotional journey, readers discover the origins of their faith, and how we struggle to separate belief from reality in a world of fundamentalist absolutes. It addresses the feelings of anger, depression, and fear that often go with strict theological conformity we, or others, have placed on us. Rethinking Everything is a book about letting go, finding peace, and discovering your passion again.
