How does a pastor go about leading the Sunday faithful with so many doubts? Are our questions and doubts an invitation to trust and believe no matter what, or are they nudging us to do something else? After years of striving to grasp the “right” way to believe and teach the faith, Keith Long, ordained pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), ventured off the known path and stepped into the void without his Christian beliefs. Doubting Faithfully: Confessions of a Skeptical Pastor describes his journey of why and what happened next.

In his daring follow-up to Doubting Faithfully: Confessions of a Skeptical Pastor, the open-minded, skeptically curious Pastor Keith Long ditches the dogma of a bodily resurrection and explores alternative explanations. Stepping into what some Christians consider heretical territory (speaking with the dead, psi phenomena, religious deconstruction, Gnosticism, etc.,) Long boldly steps through doors of perceived danger and lives to tell about what he discovers in Growing Spirit Wise: A Heretic’s Guide to Resurrection and Eternal Life.
