Three Wooden Crosses - Handcrafted Religious Wall Decor for Home, Church & Garden - Perfect for Easter, Christmas & Prayer Spaces

This book had a great voice, a great message and a really unexpected and touching ending. I have read a number of non-fiction Christian books, and what I was impressed with almost immediately in this story was not that the main character was having a crisis of faith - but that he was so steadfast and sure in that crisis of faith. While he was still going about the life of "a good Christian" - as a pastor, even - he was empty of the true feelings of faith and hope and God's love. I feel that a lot of Christians have had that season, and will resonate with the feelings that not only Matt, the main character, but a number of other characters as well, at different levels.I also liked the fact that the antagonist was steadfast in being his own God. Don't get me wrong, I am a Christian and know that this is a strange thing to say or like, but it made sense to me as a reader. There will always be people in our journey that are sure that they are right, come what may, and that don't appear to need God. And the fixes are not always as quick and filled with a flash of light and understanding like many other Christian authors appear to believe. The "bad guy" remained the "bad guy", and you knew how shallow and empty that his life likely was because of it.I won't talk about the twist at the end for obvious reasons. However, I will say that the book left me with a feeling of peace and a renewed sense of grace (and don't we all need that?).I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to more work from this author.
