Let your questions lead you to a stronger faith
Have you ever struggled with doubts about your faith? Has the Bible sometimes felt like a shaky foundation? Are you afraid to talk about it for fear of judgment from those who seem to have it all figured out?
Gregory Boyd knows how you feel. For him, faith has been anything but certain. In "Benefit of the Doubt," he invites you to embrace a faith that doesn't strive for certainty but rather for commitment to Christ in the midst of uncertainty. Join him as he shares with poignant honesty his own inspirational journey, offering reassurance that you can experience a life-transforming relationship with Christ, even with unresolved questions about the Bible, theology, and ethics.
"
""Even when certainty is inaccessible, commitment remains an option. Greg Boyd is incapable of uninteresting thoughts. And this book is not merely thoughtful; it will be a tremendous help to doubters (and non-doubters) everywhere."--John Ortberg, author of "Who Is This Man?"; pastor of Menlo Park Presbyterian Church
"Boyd has gotten used to exploring new territory, and in this book he dives into the issue of doubt and certainty--and recovers the lost treasure of Christlike humility and childlike wonder. Enjoy."--Shane Claiborne, author, activist, and lover of Jesus; www.thesimpleway.org
""Benefit of the Doubt" is a deeply personal yet profoundly theological look at the important role of doubt in the Christian faith. Prepare to feel a little less crazy, a little less alone, and a lot more challenged to take the risk of following Jesus with your head and heart engaged. Boyd is the best sort of company for the journey."--Rachel Held Evans, blogger at www.rachelheldevans.com; author of "Evolving in Monkey Town" and "A Year of Biblical Womanhood "
"If you're a Christian who wrestles with doubt or you know someone who does, "Benefit of the Doubt" is one of the best books ever written on the subject."--Frank Viola, author of "God's Favorite Place on Earth"; www.frankviola.org
Gregory A. Boyd (PhD, Princeton Theological Seminary) is the senior pastor at Woodland Hills Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, and the founder of ReKnew. He is the author or coauthor of numerous books, including "Letters from a Skeptic," "Is God to Blame?," "Repenting of Religion," and "Across the Spectrum."
