Standing in the Breach W Robert Abstein II

These poems and meditations reflect the struggles and the joys of living the faith. From sitting with a toad in search of a meal to reflections upon the mystery of God becoming flesh each piece is an examination of doubt and faith. The difficulties and the joys of being a minister during times of transition are explored with an open and honest heart and mind. The intent of the author is to take the reader on a journey. We move from examining how we express our faith to the challenges we face and the struggles that often come from seriously grappling with them. We never reach our journey's end but rather find that it leads us to ever deepening issues of faith.
