How Do We Know When It's God? A Spiritual Memoir

Maintaining a strong sense of spirituality on a day-to-day basis is difficult even for a person who has experienced a transforming religious awakening. Ten years ago Dan Wakefield wrote Returning: A Spiritual Journey, in which he chronicled the events which eventually led him back to the church. How Do We Know When Its God? is the second half of that journey. Despite all the security Wakefield found in religion and prayer, he realized that some days it was difficult to keep his faith alive and current. In crisp and gripping prose, Wakefield addresses the ins and outs of modern spirituality, and how he is continually encountering issues that challenge his faith.
