  • MediaDB / «Disappointment in God "Philip Yancey: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 2008 / Why is God not fair? Why is He silent? Why is God hiding from us? These three questions are piercingly honest. Almost every believer asks himself these three questions at some stage of life, regardless of whether he decides to say them out loud or not. Yes, the question can be posed like this: “Aren’t we indifferent to God, if He exists at all?” To answer, the author had to not only go on a journey into the depths of human nature, but also think about the question: “What is it like to be God?” Step by step, Philip Yancey moves towards the answers. He is not afraid to appear “not pious enough” or “not Christian enough” when he asks these and other questions. But it is this book that can revive faith in a person who has almost completely lost it. The author clearly shows us how great the gap is between our concepts of God and what we expect from Him in everyday life. From the book we will learn a lot about ourselves, we will look at ourselves from a completely different perspective. Perhaps we will understand our indifference to the miracles that we so long to see or our craving for theological knowledge, we will be able to reflect on why we need this knowledge - for their own sake or out of love for God. This book is addressed to every thinking Christian and seeking person . She will not leave anyone indifferent, she will force herself to do an “internal audit”, to rethink her attitude towards God. Philip Yancey is a writer, the author of eleven books, including “The Bible That Jesus Read,” “The Jesus I Didn’t Know,” “What amazing in grace”, “Disappointment in God”, “Where is God when I suffer”, “You have wonderfully formed my inward parts”, “In His image”. He is distinguished by an honest view of the world, the church and the life of a Christian. He is not afraid to raise issues that the Christian world prefers to avoid.
