Synopsis

“Yeah, but…”

Discouragement rarely attacks your faith head-on. It agrees with you first. It nods along, smiles politely, and then attaches a qualifier. That’s wonderful, but it happens every year. I’m sure God is real, but you can’t really know. I believe, but look at my track record.

After one too many of those conversations, an exasperated youth pastor prayed the prayer that became this book: “God, I just wish they’d get their buts out of my faith.”

With warmth, humor, and a Bible that never hedges, GYBOMF takes on the three voices that keep qualifying our confidence in God — the world’s buts, the church’s buts, and the ones we mutter to ourselves. Along the way we show why faith was never a leap in the dark but trust built on a track record, and how to answer every “yeah, but” with a settled “no buts about it.”

If discouragement has been nodding along with your faith, it’s time to show it the door.
