by Brook A. Thelander (Author), Don Hughes (Foreword by)
This book explores common challenges and joys in the life of faith by means of a guided tour through the seasons of the church year. Issues such as complacency, despair, unanswered prayer, evil, suffering, discerning God's will, adversity, achieving inner peace, and more are explored from the pastoral perspective of a shepherd's heart. Those new to the church year will discover its blessings and benefits, while those more familiar with its rhythms will gain a deeper appreciation of its formative power. Readers are invited on a journey of discovery where following Christ assumes a concrete shape in the midst of life's practical concerns, all within a thoroughly biblical framework.
