Meeting God again and again
STILL: Notes on
a Mid-Faith Crisis
Lauren F. Winner
HarperOne, 2012
244 pages
This is her second memoir, and chronicles her relationship with God as she descended into doubt and spiritual crisis after the death of her mother and the failure of the six-year marriage she so looked forward to in Girl Meets God. Now, she is mourning her loss of faith as well. She hasn’t lost sight of God and the church entirely, but after being “just about the most enthusiastic new Christian you had ever met,” she slams into a wall of doubt and spiritual despair. She no longer finds it easy to make time for church or even for prayer. “All is soaked in darkness,” she writes. “You are fearful. Yet you want to go on.”
