Most have tragic experiences in their family history, something Miles and Maralene Wesner have observed through almost 70 years as religious and educational counselors.
Their latest Nurturing Faith book, When God Can’t Answer, draws on the hundreds of such inexplicable tragedies they have helped people navigate.
Confused, angry, disillusioned individuals have come to them seeking answers and greater understanding of those times when painful reality absolutely repudiated traditional dogma. Unwilling to “cop out” in the face of these incongruities, the Wesners began to explore new paths with startling theological implications.
Sharing insights gained from their professional and personal life, When God Can’t Answer will help strengthen others who hurt by engaging readers in the intellectual, emotional and spiritual dimensions.
The Wesners are multi-talented teachers and prolific writers. They have published more than 150 Audio-Visual Education aids and pioneered new reading methods with their Phonics in a Nutshell (1965). Noted for their no-nonsense style, clear illustrations and willingness to face controversial issues, they seek to be a bridge between the spiritual and the intellectual worlds.
When God Can’t Answer is available in paperback for $18 (including shipping) at GFM’s bookstore, and it will be available in the future as an eBook at Amazon (Kindle) and Barnes and Noble (Nook).
Reflection and resources at the intersection of faith and culture through an inclusive Christian lens.
