There is a significant force that is working to redefine Christianity. Alisa Childers met that force head-on, finding herself under the leadership of a Pastor who questioned Christianity's validity.  Alisa was raised in a Bible-believing family. Having witnessed the impact Christ has on a home, she never thought she would question her Christian faith. Following the Lord led Alisa to lead thousands in worship through her involvement in the band ZOE girl. However, after connecting with a pastor who described himself as a "hopeful agnostic" her footing in faith started to slip. Shane Morris takes us Upstream with Alisa to discover the intellectual journey Alisa took over several years as she wrestled with a series of questions that struck at the core of the Christian faith. Through a miraculous journey in understanding more wholly the world God created, Jesus rescued Alisa, helping her to rebuild her faith, one solid brick at a time. During the month of October the Colson Center is giving away Alisa's book as a gift for a donation of any amount. It is our way of supporting Alisa and helping communicate God's incredible work in her life, while thanking you for encouraging our ministry. Visit www.colsoncenter.org for details.
