On Thursday as they ate the Passover meal with Jesus, the disciples
believed that the kingdom was coming and they were on the front end
of a revolution. Then came the tragedy of Friday and, somehow even
worse, the silence of Saturday. They ran. They doubted. They
despaired. Yet, within the grave, God's power was still flowing
like a mighty river beneath the ice of winter. And then there was
Sunday morning. Real, raw, and achingly honest, A Glorious Dark
meets readers in the ambiguity, doubt, and uncertainty we feel when
our beliefs about the world don't match up to reality. Tackling
tough questions like Why is faith so hard? Why do I doubt? Why does
God allow me to suffer? and Is God really with me in the midst of
my pain? A. J. Swoboda puts into sharp focus a faith that is
greater than our personal comfort or fulfilment. He invites readers
to develop a faith that embraces the tension between what we
believe and what we experience, showing that the very tension we
seek to eliminate is where God meets us.
