The Hungering Dark

Publisher Description

< p align="left"> These powerful reflections on biblical themes by one of today's most popular religious writers point up the truth that the darkness of doubt is often necessary to provoke a hunger for God. < i> The Hungering Dark< /i> towers as one of Fredrick Buechner's best statements on contemporary belief challenged by doubt.< /p> < p align="left"> Drawing on texts from the Old and New Testaments, < i> The Hungering Dark< /i> invites us to discover the hidden face of God, the manifestation of his grace, revealed in stillness, in unexpected places, often "through a glass, darkly." It invites us to say yes to "the possibility of God," and to recover "this fantastic hope that the future belongs to God...that holiness will return to our world."< /p>
