Faith to Stand When You Can't Understand: When Life Hurts and Answers Aren't Enough

by Lamar Vest

In the difficult seasons of life, we often search for some way to make sense of what we're experiencing. But what happens when we don't get the answers we're looking for? This book is not for perfect people. It’s for the rest of us who don’t live on the mountaintops, but have spent some time in the valley of uncertainty. It is for those who don’t have answers and know it. It is for those who do not view the Christian life as a place of instant “arrival” but more as a journey toward a confident faith. Faith to Stand When You Can’t Understand, by Dr. Lamar Vest takes a transparent look at our vulnerabilities during trials and adversity. Dr. Vest is one of today’s most highly acclaimed ambassadors for Christianity, and this challenging and disarming book is written to confront thegnawing uncertainty that results from faith shaking adversity. It cuts through the shallowness of modern sound-byte religion to reveal how a crisis can either make us or break us. Amidst our deepest pain and struggles, we can learn how to tap into a resilient faith and cultivate an enduring confidence in the unchanging God.
