A Confirmation of Faith

About this book

Confirmation is a significant rite of passage in many a person's religious life, the sacrament in which the young Christian makes a public confession and affirmation of faith in the presence of their faith community. What shapes those beliefs? How do subsequent life experiences, exposure to other beliefs, and more nuanced interpretations of Scripture lead many to reexamine their faith beliefs? In A Confirmation of Faith, the author takes a hard look at his own faith, examining subjects such as the nature of God, the purpose of prayer, the meaning of the sacraments, and life after death. These interesting reflections and stories are shared in the hope that they will strike a responsive chord and inspire examination and confirmation of the reader's own faith experience.
