"New York Times-"-bestselling author Miller explores the origin and meaning of redemption in this fully revised and redesigned edition. Hysterically funny, wryly provocative, and disquietingly insightful, the work invites readers to examine their deep need for redemption, to feel it, know it, and live like it is true in their lives.
In "Searching for God Knows What," best-selling author Donald Miller invites you to reconnect with a faith worth believing. With humor, intelligence, and his trademark writing style, he shows that relationship is God's way of leading us to redemption. And our need for redemption drives us to relationship with God. "Being a Christian," Miller writes, "is more like falling in love than understanding a series of ideas."
Maybe you are a Christian wondering what faith you signed up for. Or maybe you don't believe anything and are daring someone--anyone--to show you a genuine example of authentic faith. Somewhere beyond the self-help formulas, fancy marketing, and easy promises there is a life-changing experience with God waiting. "Searching for God Knows What "weaves together beautiful stories and fresh perspectives on the Bible to show one man's journey to find it.
