If we were made for relationship with God, why do we often feel
lost and distant from Him? The life of Christian faith is and
always has been a beautifully awkward reality. Following Jesus is
done-can only be done-in the messiness of this world into which we
were all born. Yet many Christians expect the walk of faith to be
easier, neater, and relatively devoid of hassles. So perhaps it's
time for a frank conversation about the true nature of Christian
faith. Maybe there are many desperately in need of a clear dialogue
about how-despite living in a turbulent, chaotic world-our greatest
joy is found in our pursuit of God. In The Grand Paradox, Ken
Wytsma seeks to help readers understand that although God can be
mysterious, He is in no way absent. God's ways are contradictory
and counter to the way the world tells us to pursue happiness.
Doubt is okay, it will accompany in the life of faith. What looks
like struggle can actually be the most important and meaningful
season of our lives. This book is an exploration of the art of
living by faith. It is a book for all those wrestling with the
paradoxes that confront those who seek to walk with Christ. It's an
honest look at how faith works, here and now, in our culture, our
time-and how to put down real roots and flourish in the midst of
our messy lives.
2017 Foreword INDIES Book Award Honorable Mention Publishers
Weekly's Five Best Religion Titles of 2017 Is privilege real or
imagined? It's clear that issues of race and equality have come to
the forefront in our nation's consciousness. Every week yet another
incident involving racial tension splashes across headlines and
dominates our news feeds. But it's not easy to unpack the origins
of these tensions, and perhaps we wonder whether any of these
issues really has anything to do with us. Ken Wytsma, founder of
the Justice Conference, understands these questions. He has gone
through his own journey of understanding the underpinnings of
inequality and privilege. In this timely, insightful book Wytsma
unpacks what we need to know to be grounded in conversations about
today's race-related issues. And he helps us come to a deeper
understanding of both the origins of these issues and the
reconciling role we are called to play as witnesses of the gospel.
This expanded edition includes a new afterword with further
reflections on race and privilege in today's cultural context
