Discover Faith and Doubt by John Ortberg.
Start reading today and explore ideas, insights, and experiences that stay with you.
Overview: Is it possible to be a thinking person and be completely free of doubt? To believe without question? Author and pastor John Ortberg explores the nature of doubt and finds that it is not only common but inevitable, and in some ways necessary. How do we have unshaken faith in a God who seems to sit idle as an earthquake kills thousands? How can we firmly believe in a God that lets children perish in war or from disease or hunger? Calling on his own faith (and doubt) and the observations of philosophers and theologians, Ortberg grapples with when doubt ad uncertainty are obstacles to faith, demonstrating what forms of doubt are damaging, and how we can open ourselves up to the gift of belief. He discusses the faith that hope delivers, a faith so strong and real that I can let go and trust that Jesus will catch me.

An average read for me. Some parts were interesting, while others were a bit of a slog to get through. It's fine if you have nothing else to read.
