The Other Side of Certainty

From Black-and-White Belief to a Faith Full of Color God is so much bigger than the box we often try to put him in. Spiritual platitudes, easy answers, and rigid expressions of belief often cannot bear the weight of life's real questions. For those whose faith has been shaped by black-and-white certainty or narrow church cultures, what can it look like to untangle your faith and experience Jesus more fully? In The Other Side of Certainty, Kristin Mockler Young invites you to shift from a faith of pressure, judgmentalism, and conformity to one of curiosity, exploration, and freedom. Kristin's gentle guidance will help you navigate through the confusion to find where God's grace and love are present, helping you see that God really is bigger than all your doubts, choices, past selves, or difficult circumstances. The Other Side of Certainty will help you - Move beyond rigid, black-and-white beliefs toward a faith with room for wonder; - Embrace curiosity and questions as vital parts of your spiritual growth; and - Encounter a deeper understanding of who God is and the joy and freedom he wants you to live in. Rather than clinging to certainty, you can choose wonder. Rather than fearing questions or tensions, you can embrace the mystery of a God who is far beyond your understanding. As you shift your focus from legalism to love, you can make room for not knowing and discover you're getting to know God—and yourself—better in the process. As much as you want to hold on to Jesus, he is holding on to you all the more. Discover a vibrant, honest faith on the other side of certainty.
