Book Preview:

#1 The modern world is afraid of God, afraid of becoming his disciple, and has said, I do not want to know God. It fears what others might think. It does not want to see its image reflected in the kindly eyes of Jesus.

#2 Faith is a Yes to God. It requires a person to leave his gods, his culture, and all human assurances in order to enter the land, culture, and inheritance of God. Faith consists of letting oneself be guided by God.

#3 Faith is a strong relationship between God and his people Israel. It is a loving response to a loving, covenantal initiative. It grows in an intense life of prayer and contemplative silence. It is nourished and strengthened in a daily face-to-face meeting with God and in an attitude of adoration and silent contemplation.

#4 The light of faith is a supernatural gift that comes from God. It is a light for our way that guides us throughout life. It is a break with our life of sin and the idols we have created, and a return to the living, true God through an encounter with him.
