About This Book
While many recent books have addressed the difficulties of maintaining a deep,
intimate relationship with God, White's contribution offers remarkable clarity
of thought. The founding pastor of Mecklenburg Community Church and author of
several books on spirituality structures his discussion around the "Great
Commandment": to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, and then
to turn that love outward to others. He begins with the struggles of the heart,
addressing the problem of evil and the scandal of the gospel's exclusivity, then
moves on to conflicts of the soul, the mind, the "strength" and relationships
with others. He candidly describes often-denied doubts that believers have in
areas both major (the silence of God, the will of God) and minor (the fact that
there are people we just don't like). Without giving simplistic answers to any
of these questions, White provides insightful and encouraging guidance for all
of them. He also contributes extremely helpful distinctions (e.g., different
uses of the word "tolerance") that thoughtful Christians will be quoting for
years to come. The book's moving, well-crafted illustrations-from the faith
wrestlings of a young Mother Teresa to a moving story from Corrie ten Boom's
childhood-give color and depth to the discussion. Reflecting a breadth of
knowledge, this book will appeal to more educated readers, yet its accessibility
and brevity will give it a much wider audience. --From Publishers Weekly
