People let us down, but what if God disappoints us too?
Physiotherapist Esther Macdonald is living the Australian dream, and it doesn’t surprise her.
After all, her father has always said, “Follow Jesus and be blessed.” But at twenty-eight, her world shatters. Everyone assures her God will come through for her, but what happens when he doesn’t? Has she offended God? Is her faith too small? So many conflicting explanations.
Will finding the truth cost her the people closest to her heart?
This book is about ‘The Question’ – what life is about and what is most important. In-depth wrestling with hard questions that have even harder answers. The exploration of complex ideas in plain conversations that one can actually imagine taking place.
