Yesterday I wrote about being a practical atheist, and then discovered there is a whole book about the subject – The Christian Atheist by Craig Groeschel.
A look at the index shows what this involves:
-
When You Believe in God but Don’t Really Know Him
-
When You Believe in God but Are Ashamed of Your Past
-
When You Believe in God but Aren’t Sure He Loves You
-
When You Believe in God but Not in Prayer
-
When You Believe in God but Don’t Think He’s Fair
-
When You Believe in God but Won’t Forgive
-
When You Believe in God but Don’t Think You Can Change
-
When You Believe in God but Still Worry All the Time
-
When You Believe in God but Pursue Happiness at Any Cost
-
When You Believe in God but Trust More in Money
-
When You Believe in God but Don’t Share Your Faith
-
When You Believe in God but Not in His Church
So if the subject interests you, why not make this a part of your summer reading plan.
I’m sure its not a light and easy read – and it may make you uncomfortable.
I think I will.
