The Hinge Of Your History: The Phases Of Faith

by Latayne C. Scott, Glover Shipp

When Christians are urged to "walk in the footsteps" of the faith of Abraham, they emulate his wife Sarah, who quite literally followed behind him in the life of a nomad of faith. What their story shows -- and what Christians must know-- is that faith is not a shapeless stream, but rather comes in three Promise, Contradiction, and Resolution. Learning how to navigate through those three phases brings peace and the knowledge that Sarah that God becomes a Rewarder of those who earnestly seek Him through those phases.

Reviews

[Ruth · Rating 3 out of 5]

Clear and readable, this book--while containing nothing notably new or groundbreaking--encourages the reader to take a fresh look at the lives of Abraham and Sarah and the faith on which their spiritual journey hinged.

[Sheila · Rating 4 out of 5]

Requires much thought and re-reading. Some is easily helpful, some is complex.
