Doubting Faithfully

Have you ever felt like Christianity supports only a minimal amount of intellectual input in our lives of spiritual growth? How does a pastor go about leading the Sunday faithful with so many doubts? Are our questions and doubts an invitation to trust and believe no matter what, or are they nudging us to do something else? After years of striving to grasp the "right" way to believe and teach the faith, Keith Long, ordained pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), ventured off the known path and stepped into the void without his Christian beliefs. This book describes his journey of why and what happened next.

Unlike other religious tell-all accounts, Doubting Faithfully: Confessions of a Skeptical Pastor articulates what a spiritual nomadic quest of an active leader of the Sunday morning faithful feels like from the other side of the pews-a confession most clergy might prefer to keep hidden.
