Living by faith

In this book, Stuart Blanch offers a personal view of Christian faith, richly illustrated from the Bible, from the writings of great thinkers throughout history, from contemporary life, and from his own experience. In his exploration of the strange impulse that turns belief to faith, Blanch is not afraid to tell of times when his own faith faltered. But his experience of responding to fear, doubt, and suffering has led him to a deeper understanding of what it means to live by faith -- "Not a successful Christian life, with unfailing serenity and easy solutions, but the gradual indwelling of Christ who lives in me." - Back cover.
