If God wants a relationship with us then why is he so distant? If God loves his creation then why is there so much pain? If God is good then why does he plan to consign people to hell?
We give ourselves to God and then struggle profoundly with the relationship. But instead of embracing our doubts and confusion we often deny them to ourselves and others. Sometimes we make things worse either by feeling guilty about our struggles or by dismissing them as unimportant or insignificant. We may choose to live on the surface of faith, or become resentful that God does not simply step in to clear up the confusion.
In Wrestling with God James Emery White explores the difficulties all Christians face - of heart, soul, mind and strength, and the struggles to love our neighbours as ourselves. He grapples honestly with our tough questions and disappointments, and helps us take our angers and fears back to the God who loves us. Through Christian living without pretending we can grow in our trust of the character of God and in our place in his great and wonderful embrace.
