Just kidding ;) The best part is helping others realize they are not alone – in feeling alone or lost – and that we're all collectively on the struggle bus together. And that is what makes me feel better as an author and as a human being – some company for my misery lol (less)

"For the casual reader, this book will leave a lasting impact. Dr. Kim humorously and fiercely presents the Gospel, calling out our own implicit biases, while sharing his own personal life. Academically and anecdotally, we will be challenged to think " Read more of this review »

A Holy Haunting by Sam D. Kim
"What is faith and where does it come from? Is faith just a whim? Or is there something deeper. In A Holy Haunting, Sam D. Kim shows “why faith isn’t a leap but a series of staggers from one safe place to another.”

Kim is the perfect author for this ty" Read more of this review »

Sam Kim liked a quote
The Complete Works of Saint Augustine by Augustine of Hippo
“while no one who is angry considers his anger to be unjust. For anger habitually cherished against any one becomes hatred, since the sweetness which is mingled with what appears to be righteous anger makes us detain it longer than we ought in the vessel, until the whole is soured, and the vessel itself is spoiled. Wherefore it is much better for us to forbear from anger, even when one has given us just occasion for it, than, beginning with what seems just anger against any one, to fall, through this occult tendency of passion, into hating him.”
Augustine of Hippo

“...the invitation of the gospel is a promise of safe harbor for all those who doubt and weep and those who are barely holding on and ripping at the seams. Jesus invites all those who are weary to come to him and fall apart and find rest.”
Sam D. Kim, A Holy Haunting: Why Faith Isn't a Leap But a Series of Staggers from One Safe Place to Another

“Faith isn’t opposed to doubt; it is actually part of the process. In fact, you could go so far as to say that faith apart from doubt isn’t faith at all. Faith is born out of the crucible of doubt.”
Sam D. Kim, A Holy Haunting: Why Faith Isn't a Leap But a Series of Staggers from One Safe Place to Another

“Faith is the echo and eternity is the origin.”

“At the center of the universe is a relationship, that is the most fundamental truth I know. At the center of the universe is a community. It is out and for that relationship you and I were created and redeemed.”
Darrell Johnson

“The psalmist writes in Psalm 42:7 that the “deep calls unto the deep. Sometimes many confuse this inconsolable longing as a form of chronic anxiety, or something gone wrong when it is a holy haunting for the presence of God. The deep calling unto the deep is no other than the voice of God echoing from eternity. Faith is the echo and eternity is the origin.”
