Drawing from decades of walking with others through both beauty and brokenness, he offers glimpses of a God who often works in mystery--whose grace sometimes arrives in our lives head-on but more often emerges from the side, where we least expect it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGrace, Sideways\u003c\/i\u003e isn't a book of scripted answers or spiritual clichés. It's a deeply personal witness from a seasoned pastor still learning to hold belief and doubt in the same hand. It's a companion for those with young faith--or no faith at all--who aren't sure what to do when the puzzle pieces don't seem to fit, and for those who have walked with God for years but now find some of their old beliefs cracking. Brimming with empathy and vivid insight, \u003ci\u003eGrace, Sideways\u003c\/i\u003e will encourage anyone who wonders whether doubts and difficult questions have a place in the Christian life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJack R.
