Book Description

January 7, 1997
The biggest barrier to faith is life itself. Divorce. Cancer. Infertility. Death. There are times in our lives in which God seems very far away. We don't understand His silence. We only feel the intensity of our pain and the echoing question of 'why?' The Bible declares that God is good, but can we still believe this when our lives are falling apart? In Keep Believing, Dr. Pritchard affirms what the Bible declares: that God is good and His mercy endures forever. This is true regardless of our moment-by-moment experience. God has provided comfort in our times of struggle and healing in our times of hurt through the balm of His Word.You believed in the light of day;will you still believe at midnight? Search the Scriptures with Dr. Pritchard for words of encouragement and hope. Put your confidence in the God who sorrowfully watched His Son suffer at Calvary for your benefit. Know that the same loving heavenly Father has everything completely under control. He is with you and longs to comfort you as you struggle through your hard times. Take a tell-tale look at your devotion to the Lord and His never-ending love and commitment to you in Keep Believing. You served God in the sunshine; will you now serve him in the shadows?


Editorial Reviews

Review

The problems of pain and suffering and the love and mercy of God must be addressed in every generation and within every Christian life. Keep Believing is an articulate, insightful, inspiring and engaging survey of the central issues of this universal theme. Each chapter is a gem: When Life Tumbles In, What Then?; The Blessing No One Wants; The Mystery of Unanswered Prayer; Can We Still Believe in Romans 8:28?; The Sensitivity of Jesus; Why God Makes It Hard When It Ought to Be Easy; The Far Factor; Questions and Answers: What Mr. Dufloth Would Like to Know; How a Good Man Dies; Why God Dries Our Tears; Our Awesome God; A Glimpse of Heaven; A Very Personal Statement of Faith; and Our Responsibility. Keep Believing is an important and greatly recommended addition to any Christian's personal or church library. -- Midwest Book Review

This review is from: Keep Believing: God in the Midst of Our Deepest Struggles (Paperback)
Keep Believing is a book that helps a person to keep believing even when things get rough in life. This book also explains how all things work together for good. (Romans 8:28) This book also explains how prayers that seem unanswered are really answered. I have learned to keep focusing on God because He is always there in all my troubles. I would recommend this book to all my friends and family. This book has helped me tremendously in dealing with the death of my 2 1/2 month old son.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book everyone should read!, November 8, 1999
This review is from: Keep Believing: God in the Midst of Our Deepest Struggles (Paperback)
Ray Pritchard answers all the "why me?"questions beautifully in this book. I wish this book would have been available to me and my family 12 years ago when my sister Laura was killed in a car accident. Now I understand much more the glorious ways of our Lord. I am about to order 2 more books for friends of mine, who are now in their darkest time in life and are on the brink of losing faith. Of course I refuse to part with my copy!
