Download or read book Faithful Doubt written by Travis Scott and published by Storied Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith and doubt. Many assume these are polar opposites. Many Christians think the presence of doubt cancels out faith or makes them somehow unworthy to go to God. Many non-Christians assume they could never have faith because they have so many doubts about the God of the Bible. But what if faith and doubt aren't the polar opposites we often think they are. And what if the expression of doubt can actually be a sign and expression of a healthy faith? If we read through Scripture, we find the puzzling fact that doubts and questions about God and his ways are quite prevalent. In that sense, the entire book of Habakkuk could be described as one man's wrestling with God and boldly stating his questions and doubts. In Faithful Doubt, Travis Scott explores the ancient prophecy of Habakkuk to see how it helps us better understand the relationship between faith and doubt and how the practice of faithful doubt is a necessary part of a healthy spiritual life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of A New Kind of Christianity comes a bold proposal: only doubt can save the world and your faith. ONE of the Best Spiritual Books of 2021—Spirituality & Practice "Will help you live fuller and breathe easier..” —Glennon Doyle Sixty-five million adults in the U.S. have dropped out of active church attendance and about 2.7 million more are leaving every year. Faith After Doubt is for the millions of people around the world who feel that their faith is falling apart. Using his own story and the stories of a diverse group of struggling believers, Brian D. McLaren, a former pastor and now an author, speaker, and activist shows how old assumptions are being challenged in nearly every area of human life, not just theology and spirituality. He proposes a four-stage model of faith development in which questions and doubt are not the enemy of faith, but rather a portal to a more mature and fruitful kind of faith. The four stages—Simplicity, Complexity, Perplexity, and Harmony—offer a path forward that can help sincere and thoughtful people leave behind unnecessary baggage and intensify their commitment to what matters most.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Believing Again Roger Lundin brilliantly explores the cultural consequences of the rather sudden nineteenth-century emergence of unbelief as a widespread social and intellectual option in the English-speaking world. / Lundin's narrative focuses on key poets and novelists from the past two centuries Dostoevsky, Dickinson, Melville, Auden, and more showing how they portray the modern mind and heart balancing between belief and unbelief. Lundin engages these literary luminaries through chapters on a series of vital subjects, from history and interpretation to beauty and memory. Such theologians as Barth and Balthasar also enter the fray, facing the challenge of modern unbelief with a creative brilliance that has gone largely unnoticed outside the world of faith.

Download or read book The Faith to Doubt written by Stephen Batchelor and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kierkegaard said that faith without doubt is simply credulity, the will to believe too readily, especially without adequate evidence, and that "in Doubt can Faith begin." All people involved in spiritual practice, of whatever persuasion, must confront doubt at one time or another, and find a way beyond it to belief, however temporary. But "faith is not equivalent to mere belief. Faith is the condition of ultimate confidence that we have the capacity to follow the path of doubt to its end. And courage." In this engaging spiritual memoir, Stephen Batchelor describes his own training, first as a Tibetan Buddhist and then as a Zen practitioner, and his own direct struggles along his path. "It is most uncanny that we are able to ask questions, for to question means to acknowledge that we do not know something. But it is more than an acknowledgement: it includes a yearning to confront an unknown and illuminate it through understanding. Questioning is a quest." Batchelor is a contemporary Buddhist teacher and writer, best known for his secular or agnostic approach to Buddhism. He considers Buddhism to be a constantly evolving culture of awakening rather than a religious system based on immutable dogmas and beliefs. Buddhism has survived for the past 2,500 years because of its capacity to reinvent itself in accord with the needs of the different Asian societies with which it has creatively interacted throughout its history. As Buddhism encounters modernity, it enters a vital new phase of its development. Through his writings, translations and teaching, Stephen engages in a critical exploration of Buddhism's role in the modern world, which has earned him both condemnation as a heretic and praise as a reformer.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Where Believers May Doubt: Or Studies in Biblical Inspiration and Other Problems of Faith It may not be rash to hold that two intellectual gifts are still needed in fuller measure to bring Catholic apostles and apologists into touch with the thinkers of our day - the power of sight and of insight; in other words, the rare gifts of appreciation and of thinking. Nowadays when those outside the Fold are thinking earnestly if somewhat erratically, one of the first duties of the Catholic writer is to set a true price upon the good which lurks under every evil, the inner truth which ever remains the contradiction and strength of everything untrue. To refute a man we must point out where he is wrong; but to convince him we must point out where he is right. A still earlier duty than that of mastering our opponents' truths, is to have mastered our own by patient thinking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Faith and Free Thought: A Second Course of Lectures Delivered at the Request of the Christian Evidence Society All this system of doubt has, too, a character specifically its own. The present assault upon Christianity is altogether different from that of the Deists of the last century, or of the Atheists of the revolutionary aera. There is very little open assault upon the first principles of Theism. The attack is all the more dangerous because its real purpose is so far concealed, because it proceeds by sap and mine, rather than by open assault. For many a soul which would be on its guard if called upon at once to surrender its faith in a God, is led unsuspiciously 'to parley with the enemy when with fair speeches and professions of respect for that which is most, highly prized he proposes only to examine some untenable propositions which have been too long admitted without question, and to clear Faith, not to impair it, by bringing Reason to its aid.

In Divine Scripture there are the same checks and counter-checks for our as surance, balancing, correcting, and interpreting the accounts.
