Synopsis

Is God Just a Distant Concept? An Award-Winning Religion Correspondent is Convinced the Answer is No and Explores the Possible Relationship with Our Creator Fox News Religion Correspondent Lauren Green uses her wealth of stories, vast network of contacts, and her own extensive study of theology to take the reader on a unique journey of spiritual discovery. With few female authors writing in the field of theology, Green provides an important perspective to all who wish to move closer to not only a deeper relationship with God but an understanding of what makes that possible. Green gathers insight from some amazing guides along the way, through personal conversations with some of the leading minds in the world on the topic of Christianity. These include: Timothy KellerJohn PiperAlister McGrathWilliam Lane CraigJohn LennoxSir John PolkinghorneAmy BeckmanElizabeth Lev… and many more Is God simply an accessory that we carry with us? Something similar to what we might download from a music site to suit our personal tastes—a personal assistant in a way? Or is He His law, His structure, and His authoritative Word contained in the Holy Scripture, an objective reality to which you daily shape your life? If we believe or know we should believe that it’s the latter, how do we make this happen? How do we live joyfully under God’s will in a world so drenched in the will of human desire? Lighthouse Faith explores the heart of the Christian doctrine and a pathway of perceiving God as an interactive hands-on presence; a caring and loving being. The first commandment is a life-giving force loaded with information about the world in which we live. This law stands atop the other nine commandments as a beacon of light, illuminating the created order, just as a lighthouse lamp shines in a darkened space, heralding a way to safety.

Goodreads review by Clay

The book reminded me of the writings of C.S. Lewis. The explaining of musical theory was difficult for me to follow.......more

I had a lightbulb moment during a discussion of the first and eighth days of the week. "Oh!" I exclaimed, fingers aflutter, "that's just like the musical octave that starts on the first note and ends on the eighth, which is the same tone as the first, only higher." My friend replied, "You need to re......more

Goodreads review by Amy

Though Lauren Green is obviously intelligent, it seems she is more of a journalist (providing provocative short stories/illustrations) than a book writer (who must employ the use of EDITING out illustrations to fit the book). Our women's group of about 60 women read this and, to a person, found it f......more

Enjoyed the many stories and conversations and comparisons throughout this book. Whenever I see a lighthouse, I will now think of God's light that is there in the darkness to comfort me.......more
