More Lost Than Found: Finding a Way Back to Faith
More Lost Than Found Finding a Way Back to Faith Author:Jared Howard Herd "I vaguely remember finding Jesus when I was a child, but I vividly recall losing him." — Jared Herd grew up the son of a preacher, baptized in religion before he was ever baptized in church. As a child, his parents went through a painful and public divorce, and Jesus became a distant memory, like an artifact of childhood that gets put ... more »away and forgotten. Eventually Jared broke a promise he made to himself and walked back into church. He realized the problem wasn't God -- it was how he had been told to think about God.
Like Jared, teenagers and young adults are leaving the church in astonishing numbers. Something is obviously wrong. Is the problem Jesus? Or is the problem how we have been told to think about Jesus? Perhaps you've always wondered how music, movies, friends, or anything on the outside of Christianity could relate to your life inside of it. Perhaps something in your life keeps you from believing you would ever fit in as a believer. Maybe you were always told what to become, but no one tried to understand how you became who you are.
In More Lost Than Found, Jared Herd comes alongside anyone who has ever struggled with faith to reengage them in the truth they long to hear. If you have ever felt you didn't fit at church or had questions about God, maybe it's time to give your faith another chance. God wants to find you where you are. « less
