About the Book

Oftentimes we wonder how ordinary people cope with extraordinary circumstances. When the car accident is too horrific to imagine, when dementia becomes part of a family's life, when cancer invades a healthy body, when armed assault rears its ugly head: how do people cope? Without faith, there is no answer. Without faith, there is no hope.

Faith stories have long been important staples of the spiritual life. They trace the work of the Spirit in our lives, and they frame our deepest convictions about God's purpose for our existence. Our stories make Christian faith more believable human real.

In this collection, you're invited inside the lives of some remarkable believers. All have lived the tension between tasting life and trusting God. They share with us how their Christian faith has sustained them and enriched their journey.


About the Author

At the time the stories for Declarations of the Soul II were collected, I had been a member of South Main Baptist Church for over twenty-five years. I knew stories of faith journeys would be of interest to the congregation and the contributors? friends and families.
