Publisher's Summary:
Many believers can relate to the process of exploring the world outside of faith and finding good, seemingly normal human beings who they were raised to view as "others": homosexuals, Muslims, atheists, secularists, liberals, and city people. This universal story, where an individual raised to believe in God has to reconcile their inherited belief with their world, points to every generation's struggle. It seems that Christianity is designed for a beautiful but confounding reconstruction of faith, generation by generation. This is the narrative of With God Again, in which a man shares the pain and joy of finding God inside and outside the Church.
With God Again is a deeply personal story of an individual's lifelong wrestling match with the Creator. Even as a teenager, controversy was in the DNA of the author's relationship with God and the world. It was in these adolescent years that false sexual assault allegations destroyed the author's conception of God and his life at the time, but soon lead him directly to the person of God. It is in this continual process of tragedy, loss, learning, and growth that the author is able to share a testimony of God's grace and love for all people. The early trials are part of a God-ordained plan: Moving from the suburbs into one of the poorest neighborhoods in Portland, entering a new community, joining a new racial, cultural, and ethnic family, and subsequently finding Jesus anew in it all. With God Again explains in story that there is a transcendent, perfect God who is always greater than we can conceive, and at the same time, God is so powerfully knowable and accessible, even to the messiest and worst of us.
Members Reviews:
wonderful book!
This book speaks to me because of the constant push and pull relationship I have with god, and the slowly clearing of the foggy image of him.
ÂThe moments of understanding after his adolescence made this a page-turner. The way the author breaks down what Christianity is all about is done wonderfully, also showing his experience of what it is like to walk away from the church and to be welcomed back with open arms.
The author was really vulnerable with his past, and with his flaws. I loved the way he just lays it out there for the world to see, I enjoy the individualism of this Christian novel compared to others. It speaks to me by being so much more unique and personal than most titles of this ganre, I look forward to future writings from this author.
Eye opening read!
Wow, it takes guts to be completely transparent with your faith journey. Some people might find it offensive reading this book, but you're just simply sharing your testimony that may relate to others. I like it a whole lot! My faith journey has not been a walk in a park, let me tell you... I'm glad you were very honest and genuine in how you felt and how you were able to come back. It will help people give them hope and belief to continue to thrive in whatever they believe in. I hope to read more from you in the future. Take care Aaron!
Excellent !!!!
"With God Again is an excellent book written in a very straight forward, raw, sometimes harsh way. I was continually surprised by the vivid way in which the author described issues in his life, the church, religion, sexual identity, politics, and race.
