The first installment of an incredible novel by George Macdonald, this volume introduces the main character of this three part journey, Thomas Wingfold. His dutiful demeanor and routine religious position are reflected in his faith, which has become stagnant and rote. Throughout Volume 1, Thomas begins to wrestle with certain aspects of his beliefs and encounters several individuals with unique perspectives that eventually spark sincere reflection in this quiet figure. Experiencing confusion, doubt, and heavy questions, Wingfold begins his journey to true faith as he struggles with his understanding of the faith he’s professed his entire life.

A great story as well as a great treatise for eternal life and for the existence of God. Lots of sermons and preaching, but solid truths through and through. Thomas Wingfold is a preacher assigned to a church who realizes that he is a doubter in the very Word he preaches. He is an honest man, though, and seeks out the truth. In doing so, he finds it to the extent that it convinces and satisfies him like nothing else, while also finding love for a woman who selfishly loves her dying criminal brother.

Read all of the volumes as one book. GMac is the best at making you want to exemplify the best characters. Less love story, more drama and lots of good practical application.
