About this listen
Many believers can relate to the process of exploring the world outside of faith and finding good, seemingly normal human beings who they were raised to view as "others": homosexuals, Muslims, atheists, secularists, liberals, and city people. This universal story, where an individual raised to believe in God has to reconcile their inherited belief with their world, points to every generation's struggle. It seems that Christianity is designed for a beautiful but confounding reconstruction of faith, generation by generation. This is the narrative of With God Again, in which a man shares the pain and joy of finding God inside and outside the Church.
With God Again is a deeply personal story of an individual's lifelong wrestling match with the Creator. Even as a teenager, controversy was in the DNA of the author's relationship with God and the world. It was in these adolescent years that false sexual assault allegations destroyed the author's conception of God and his life at the time, but soon lead him directly to the person of God. It is in this continual process of tragedy, loss, learning, and growth that the author is able to share a testimony of God's grace and love for all people. The early trials are part of a God-ordained plan: Moving from the suburbs into one of the poorest neighborhoods in Portland, entering a new community, joining a new racial, cultural, and ethnic family, and subsequently finding Jesus anew in it all. With God Again explains in story that there is a transcendent, perfect God who is always greater than we can conceive, and at the same time, God is so powerfully knowable and accessible, even to the messiest and worst of us.
