"I was numb. It was like a dream. I hung up the phone and stared out the front store window at two police officers walking across the street. A dispatcher had just informed me on the phone that they were coming. She also informed me that my wife, Barbara, and my youngest daughter, Joanna, had been in a serious car accident. The reality of what had happened hit me before the officers actually told me that they were gone." So begins The Dark Side of Faith. Follow Pastor Doug as he faces this tragedy and shares his unflinching look at both the causes and the eternal purposes for earthly pain. Learn how you too can overcome any setback and find a way to acceptance and inner peace. Don't get derailed by the inevitable disappointments in life: and - above all - don't waste your pain.

An Honest, Hopeful Look at Christian Doubt and Disappointment Doubt often has less to do with the head than the heart. When Christians go through trials--from unmet personal expectations to the death of a loved one--they often feel like God has abandoned them, or maybe he never cared at all. Kluck and Martin walk readers through dark times in their own lives to reveal a God of love who never forsakes his children. Here is grace and hope for any believer struggling to believe.

A Gray Faith is unique in that it is written, not after cancer has been beaten, or as a reflection on someone else's experience, but it is written in the dark, gray walk of not knowing if cancer will end my life. We all face dark times, but the manner in which we embrace our faith through the gray, uncertainty determines the growth our soul will experience in the life and the life to come. If you are struggling in your faith or aren't sure you have faith, this book is a great start to walking through the questions of this life and the life to come.

Dark Faith is a collection of essays that study Flannery O'Connor's complex religious vision in her second novel The Violent Bear It Away.

"The darkest hour is just before dawn." The age-old adage has been borne out through the experiences of countless lives as a true statement. In Faith for a Dark Saturday, the noted theologian and historian James Baker shows how nine men from the Bible prove the point. Each man tells, in his own words, the misery of his darkest hour, a time that he did not know but we do was just before the dawning of a morning of hope. There is Abraham as he prepared to sacrifice his son Isaac. Jacob as he prepared to meet his hostile brother and possible death. Moses in desert exile before he sees the burning bush and receives the commission of his life. King Hezekiah as he awaits assault from the invincible Assyrian army. Joseph as he contemplates the scandal caused by his finance's pregnancy. The apostle Peter on the Saturday between the crucifixion and resurrection. Paul as he prepares to leave for Damascus to round up Christians. The jailer of Philippi before the earthquake that will bring his salvation. John in exile on Patmos before his vision. You will be inspired to lean on your own faith as you share the experiences of these men, caught in fear and despair, during the agony of their dark Saturdays, just before the dawn of a new day of hope.
