Faith is neither static nor instantaneous. It is not something we
stumble upon and instantly understand. Neither is it a monolithic,
one-dimensional, singular entity that has but one face, one color, one
fragrance. It is many-faceted, multi-dimensional, and appears
differently depending on one's angle to the Son.
In Finding Faith in
Slow Motion, Damon Gray examines faith from myriad angles and
through
gut-wrenching life experiences, as he asks regarding faith, "What is
that stuff" Spanning the emotional gamut from laughter to tears, Gray
challenges us to define our faith and redefine it, to look at it from a
multitude of perspectives and define it again.
The writing is
intentionally evocative and playful, offering the reader the ability to
identify with Gray as he wrestles with the weighty subject matter of
finding faith.
Review:
Author Damon J. Gray's book, Finding Faith in Slow Motion is full of ideas on how to explore all levels of faith. As he takes us step by step through our growth in our faith and belief in God. Damon examines faith from many
angles and through real life experiences, he asks, "What is Faith?" His writing is both evocative and playful as he leads the reader through the matter of finding
faith. I enjoyed reading through this book and how it constantly challenged me to re-examine my own walk with God.

high-school sweetheart, his wife, Alean Melinda.
