Gutsy Faith: Hard Conversations with God

Gutsy Faith: Hard Conversations with God

By Jeff Edmondson

Beacon Hill Press, 2006, 189 pp., $14.99,
www.beaconhillbooks.com

“Could it be that simple? Pray and obey?”

This is one of the primary questions Jeff Edmondson, a youth publishing manager at Nazarene Publishing House, addresses in Gutsy Faith. Working under the assumption that God desires to say yes to His people, Edmondson clarifies that the key is in the questions we ask God and how we listen. He explains, “The more we recognize the voice of the Spirit in our lives, the easier it becomes to always ask the right questions. And often it takes a lot of guts to ask the right questions.”

Rooting each chapter in a section of scripture and concluding with thought/application questions, readers are invited to discuss Gutsy Faith in a small group. Appropriate for high school and college students, this is a discipleship tool that provides biblical foundations and practical steps for hearing God’s voice and following His direction in daily life.

How do you handle humor and mockery in your group?

After dealing with students whose feelings had been hurt by others in our group, we developed policies about harmful humor.
We don't have policies on humor or mockery, but it's something we watch.
This kind of stuff never happens in our group.
