We all believe. Be it in love, God, Santa Claus, or the workings of an internal combustion engine, we all believe in something. After all, we're only human. Belief, however, is hardly black and white. It's one thing to believe in things we can see. It's quite another to believe in things we cannot. And another task altogether to trust in things we cannot see. Like God.
Faith isn't easy. But it's us: we're finite beings. Faith recognizes our limits; it acknowledges life's ambiguity. And it counters these with its understanding of what is most true-God. This book is a story about faith. It's a story of learning to trust in a supernatural God in a material world. It's a meditation on living with, as philosopher Soren Kierkegaard put it, "objective uncertainty." It's a tale of learning to live with an invisible God.
