Faith doesn't always make sense.
We live in a world of tension, and as much as we'd
sometimes like it to, our faith was not meant to relieve that tension
but to make some sense of it. Through stunning essays and evocative
stories, Steven James explores the wonder, paradox, and presence of
Jesus in life today.
Without trying to decipher or diminish the mysteries of
a life of faith, James leads you deeper into the rich texture of the
breathtaking story God is telling our planet. Rather than limiting God
to human understanding, you can discover the joy found in not being able
to ever fully comprehend the Creator or the depth of his love. From
funny to poignant to profound, but always pointing toward God, James's
stories help you develop a worldview of wonder at the incredible world
in which we live.
There's never been a better time to get to know this God
who is illogical, unreasonable, unrealistic, and incredibly and
unmistakably true.

This was an interesting book and not quite like any other I've ever
read. The author gave me permission not to comprehend all the
mysteries of God...and not to feel bad about it. It's the author's
premise that it's in those times that we try to unravel the mysteries of
God that we have the opportunity for deep fellowship with Him.
This book made me think, that's for sure.
