Overcoming trials and difficulties is more prevalent in the Christian Walk than people ever realize, and it was just as true for Jesus as he lived among us.
Many persons, including those who have been in church for a long time, have deep questions, even doubts about their faith, and it is not unusual to learn of those who have shut the door on God in their lives.
To candidly deal with those questions is the purpose of her book, The Trouble with Jesus: Considerations Before You Walk Away.
After more than 20 years in ministry (faith-based counseling and church settings), Constance has found many persons in the pews (or chairs) have on their hearts people whom they love but who have serious obstacles to accepting Jesus.
Too often they feel the "church" is the place to be saved discounting how their witness is primary for the Holy Spirit to work in lives. Simply put, they don't know how to do it.
This book is first written for that doubter or skeptic with an edgy voice that challenges Jesus' narrative, faithful to the Gospel story as Jesus as Son of God. In that place, it is an excellent tool whereby believers can present it to these persons and introduce Christ with, "If you would read this, could we have a conversation?" As said, the Holy Spirit then has an open door in which to enter lives and confirm a commitment.
What if the trials and pressures of life were molding you into a precious gem? Constance Hastings shares her captivating journey of faith, starting with her unexpected enrollment in a Christian school and her early acceptance of Jesus. Her stories of navigating the challenges of faith will resonate deeply, especially as she compares this spiritual journey to the formation of a diamond.
Curious about how to bridge the gap between skepticism and faith? Constance opens up how her book is aimed at those who wrestle with doubt. She encourages a healthy engagement with questions of faith
