Findind Faith

Brian does a great job of thoughtfully and logically addressing basic questions that people face then trying to navigate the maze of "spirituality"in our culture. Like the C. S. Lewis classic "Mere Christianity" which is quoted often in the book it does not attempt supply all of the answers the "life the universe and everything" but offers thought provoking logical arguments for meaningful faith in a real God. His conversational style is easy to read and the arguments are compelling. I highly recommend it no matter where you may be on your spiritual journey.

Great for people figuring out what they want in life

McLaren does a great job in this book with putting out the options and asking the questions to help people figure out which way they want to go in their faith. He doesn't answer many of the questions - that's for you to do - but he gently prods about church preferences, how you meet God, etc., hoping that in your answers you will find God. It's an interesting approach, and feels fresh. However, this book is geared toward people that are seeking answers to emotional questions about God. His other book in this series is geared for people seeking answers more intellectual questions. I didn't realize this or I would have purchased the other book, given that that's my doubt struggle.

Overall, a good book, and great to get discussion started about how people meet God. It reminded me that my ways are no less valid than my husband's, and that God uses our different personalities accordingly.

Very valuable resource

Very good for an honest seeker. Very good for believers who need to process a bit more their convictions or presumed convictions. In a way it meets a need similar to that met by C S Lewis' Mere Christianity, but more conversational, more thorough, and definitely more contemporary. Highly recommended for all who care about the credibility of their own faith experience.

Finding faith is not a leap in the dark that requires you to forsake truth and intellectual honesty. In two companion volumes, Brian McLaren affirms the needs of both your mind and your heart as he helps you to find a faith that is real, honest, good, enriching, transforming, and yours.
