There will always be people who lose faith. But how do we reconnect with those who have walked away? With his new book Losing Faith: those who have walked away, Andy Frost, Director of Share Jesus International, looks at those who have walked away from the church or have struggled with their faith and offers compassionate and practical advice on how we can help them. Michael Frost, author of Re:Jesus and Exiles praised Andy's book saying: When so much preaching by the Church today is done to the converted, Andy Frost's book invites us to listen to those who have lost faith, to validate their questions and concerns and to acknowledge we have something to learn from these so-called backsliders. Losing Faith is a compassionate, generous, full-blooded call for the church to wake up to the wisdom of the lapsed. Andy's passion for reconnecting the church with society and culture doesn't stop here. Along with numerous projects he will also be embarking on a tour with the Share Jesus International team and Dave Bilbrough. The 'Rediscovering Faith Autumn Tour', is based on his new book and will consist of story, challenge and music, suitable for adults and young people; the faithful and the doubtful.

Five hundred years ago Martin Luther posted his ninety-five theses or grievances to the door of the All Saints' Church of Wittenberg and condemned the Catholic Church's teaching of indulgences as nothing but a scheme to raise money for the church. It is a supreme irony of history that, five hundred years later, it is now a subset of the Protestant Church that is defrauding the faithful. The Catholic Church's teaching of indulgences and the evangelical movement's teaching of tithing-to-be-blessed are substantially the same and lead to the same result: In both cases, the church walks away with a bag of money and the Christian walks away with a bag full of empty promises. This book explains why I am losing faith in the church, but finding faith in Christ. The reason for this is that I began finding answers to some of the most elusive questions about God. Something is preventing God from doing all the good that he would otherwise want to do. But here is the problem. How can God have limitations? If he has limitations, then he must not be divine. However, there is one thing that could prevent a good, all-powerful God from doing all the good that he would otherwise want to do that would not detract at all from his omnipotence. What this is and how it holds the key to unlocking some of the most perplexing mysteries of God is explained in this book.

Losing Faith in Faith records Dan Barker's dramatic journey from devout soul-winner to one of America's most prominent freethinkers.Following his "calling" at age 15, Dan Barker worked as a missionary, ordained minister, associate pastor, touring evangelist, Christian songwriter, performer and record producer. After preaching for 19 years, Barker "lost faith in faith." Throwing out the bath water, he discovered: "There is no baby there!"Today Barker, co-president of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, Inc., (www.ffrf.org) frequently represents freethought on the talkshow circuit and at personal appearances, concerts, and debates around the country, turning his experience as a former minister into ammunition against superstition and irrationality.In Losing Faith in Faith, Barker explains why he left the ministry. He also offers a definitive, compelling analysis of why he rejects belief in a god and the claims of religion. He explores the fallacies, inconsistencies, and harm of Christian doctrine and theistic dogma. In its place, he issues an appealing and compassionate invocation of freethought, reason, and humanism.Losing Faith in Faith is both a challenge to believers and an arsenal for skeptics.

Is there life after loss? Grace Mathers is almost certain there isn’t. She’s slowly picking up the pieces of her shattered life, one painful step at a time. She’s hiding from the pain, avoiding the truth, and living in a full state of denial. When Ryan Bernhart walks into her life, she is anything but pleased. Although she’s instantly attracted to him, she wants nothing to do with the tattoo-covered bad boy. She has no room in her life for any more chaos or confusion, and she does not intend to get involved with someone who is destined to break her heart. Ryan is a man on a mission. Keeping his shop afloat and finding a place to live are his top priorities. What he doesn’t need is Grace Mathers, the spunky beauty who threatens to upend his entire world. She’s everything he could ask for if he were the kind of guy to want more, which he most definitely is not. He’s not looking for forever, not looking for anything resembling a relationship. Not now. Not ever. It’s not easy learning to let go and learning to love. Will they decide to take a chance on friendship, on possibly finding love, on hopefully finding faith in one another? Or will their pasts threaten any chance of future happiness?

William Lobdell's journey of faith—and doubt—may be the most compelling spiritual memoir of our time. Lobdell became a born-again Christian in his late 20s when personal problems—including a failed marriage—drove him to his knees in prayer. As a newly minted evangelical, Lobdell—a veteran journalist—noticed that religion wasn't covered well in the mainstream media, and he prayed for the Lord to put him on the religion beat at a major newspaper. In 1998, his prayers were answered when the Los Angeles Times asked him to write about faith. Yet what happened over the next eight years was a roller-coaster of inspiration, confusion, doubt, and soul-searching as his reporting and experiences slowly chipped away at his faith. While reporting on hundreds of stories, he witnessed a disturbing gap between the tenets of various religions and the behaviors of the faithful and their leaders. He investigated religious institutions that acted less ethically than corrupt Wall St. firms. He found few differences between the morals of Christians and atheists. As this evidence piled up, he started to fear that God didn't exist. He explored every doubt, every question—until, finally, his faith collapsed. After the paper agreed to reassign him, he wrote a personal essay in the summer of 2007 that became an international sensation for its honest exploration of doubt. Losing My Religion is a book about life's deepest questions that speaks to everyone: Lobdell understands the longings and satisfactions of the faithful, as well as the unrelenting power of doubt. How he faced that power, and wrestled with it, is must reading for people of faith and nonbelievers alike.

However, the book's sensitive detailing of the stories themselves makes conversion more than a theoretical occurrence; it makes the immediacy, and often the difficulty, of conversion both real and moving.

Faith Brooks is a typical teenaged pastor’s kid, until she does the unthinkable and moves in with Gabe, an edgy musician and nonbeliever, seemingly closing the door on her past forever. After Faith abandons them, the Brooks family is left to pick up the pieces, unsure if they’ll ever see her again. While coping with Faith’s unsettling desertion, each family member separately wrestles with feelings of betrayal, anger, and fear. The chaos that ensues threatens everything they have ever believed about themselves, God, and the world around them. As Faith struggles to find her way in a scary new world without a support system, her family desperately searches for the reasons why she was driven to commit such a treacherous act. In losing Faith, now the possibility looms that they might also lose their own. Losing Faith is a compelling, modern-day tale of loss, love, and the enduring power of faith, as a teenage girl escapes her reality to explore a world devoid of God’s influence, leaving her heartbroken family to wonder why.
