Faith, sure you can define it, but do you really know what it is? Moreover, what has your faith done for you lately? The Bible teaches that, without faith, it is impossible to please God; and rooted in the heart of every Christian is the desire to please God, yet many Christians struggle to put faith to work in their daily lives.
The author dissects faith using a secular, legalistic slant and presents a unique perspective on the merits of the Christian version of the doctrine. Using the art of storytelling, some of which are fictional, others true, many of the dimensions of faith are bought to life. Faith is given transactional value and is treated as the cornerstone on which the entire Christian faith is built. Light on theology but heavy on practical, digestible messages, you can't avoid having the "I never thought of it that way" moments. It's funny too, which is not expected in a book that tackles the seriousness of theologically debatable topics.
The stories are refreshing and relatable and capture the imagination as you read. The book guides, instructs, and has a conversational dimension that keeps you engaged.
