A practical and personal approach to apologetics for students. How many times has your teacher asked you a question, and you stare blankly at the ceiling, hoping to discover the answer lingering there? It's frustrating when we don't know the answers to the questions we're asked by others, but it can be even more frustrating when we don't know the answers to the questions we are asking ourselves. Have you ever asked one of these questions? * Does what I think really matter? * What is truth? * Is God there? * Has God spoken? * Am I important enough? * Am I good enough? * What's so great about heaven? If you've ever wondered about any of these questions, you've come to the right place. In Living with Questions, Dale Fincher will help you look at each of these questions in such a way that you'll discover clues, helpful tools, and answers---and what they all mean for your life and your faith. The answers you find will put you on a path to dig deeper and gain confidence in your faith. As Dale addresses the big questions that he's been asked by students across the country, you'll find that you're not alone in your doubt, confusion, or questioning. As you learn to live with questions, even the answers are only steps in the right direction. You'll find how they whet the appetite to go deeper into your purpose on this planet and to discover something big---yet very personal---that's worth living for.
Dale Fincher is a gifted communicator addressing thousands every year with his clear and creative style.
Holding graduate degrees in philosophy and the performing arts, Dale loves to integrate story and imagination with common-sense for a culture that thinks with its eyes, critically slicing through the ideas of the day with a passion that penetrates the heart and stirs the mind. His singular vision is to equip individuals and communities to speak into the larger conversation of what it means to be appropriately human, including themes of purpose and meaning, gender, sensible faith, and integrating Jesus into the rhythms of everyday life.
Because of his style, Dale enjoys speaking to a variety of audiences from teens to adults and is sometimes found reading stories and discussing meanings in the writings of C. S. Lewis as well as dramatically presenting Scripture at conferences and churches.
His first book, Living with Questions (Zondervan, 2007), conversationally and personally addresses questions student surveys identify as some of their most important in life.
As co-founder of Soulation (www.soulation.org), Dale and his wife, Jonalyn, frequently travel and speak as a husband/wife team. And when not on the road, his ongoing reflections can be found at his blog (www.dalefincher.com).
Dale recently moved to Steamboat, Colorado, which he says reminds him a lot of Narnia. He enjoys flyfishing and hiking the hills with his wife and three corgis.
