Inhaltsangabe

This is about that one, unanswered prayer. Amidst all of the things we've praised and thanked God for, most of us have the memory of that one time God didn't come through like he promised. God'shadow is about that time he let you down. Daniel de Sevén takes us on journey deeper into doubt through a variety of creative essays meant to recall dormant doubts in the reader or else to create new ones. For many it will be an uncomfortable adventure but it is, the author argues, a necessary one. Doubt is, de Sevén asserts, the delivery room of faith. You cannot have faith except that you also have doubt, for their needs to be some degree of improbability that makes faith necessary in order to believe. A crisis of faith occurs when people try to ignore their doubts out of guilt or shame. But God'shadow is a book of embracing doubts, of accepting that we all have them and acknowledging the need to allow ourselves to address them. But be warned: this book isn't an inductive argument, trying to get the reader from point "A" to point "B" in order to prove the author's point. Rather, it is at once disjointed and communal, hoping rather that the reader will see it as a means of beginning a discussion and dangerously allows them to reach their own conclusions.
