Searching for Real Faith - or No Faith at All

What happens when a young Christian dealing with disillusionment and doubt spends a weekend with an elderly, retired pastor? They talk. And no subject is off limits. Clear Winter Nights is a stirring story about faith, forgiveness, and the distinctiveness of Christianity. Through a powerful narrative and engaging dialogue, Trevin Wax shows the relevance of unchanging truth in an ever-changing world.

Quotes from Clear Winter Nights:

"Truth is not a formula… Truth is a Person."

"No Christian who truly understands grace can feel superior to anyone else. Grace shatters any sense of superiority."

"A Christian is not defined by the sins of the past or the struggles of the present but by the vision of the future."

"The world says, 'Be true to yourself.' King Jesus says, 'Be true to your future self.'"

"The true rebellion is in the heart of the Christian who follows King Jesus by swimming upstream against the current of the world."

"Don't trust in your strength, because there is such a thing as pride. Don't despair in your weakness, because there is such a thing as forgiveness."

"Authenticity isn't accepting your sins. It's admitting your sins and then being true to the person King Jesus has declared you to be."

When his life comes apart, will the center hold?

Chris Walker has everything. A career, a beautiful fiancée, a promising ministry opportunity, and a faith instilled in him from a young age. But when a revelation about his family comes to light at his grandmother's funeral, Chris finds himself facing questions he didn't even know he had about…well, everything.

Fighting a battle within and without from those that don't understand his sudden doubts, Chris seeks refuge in a weekend with his grandfather to ask the tough questions and sort through the issues where faith meets life and disillusionment collides with truth.

For those searching for the historic Christian faith that is relevant to life today, or for those who believe that a completely new faith is called for, this stirring tale is a deep and powerful exploration of what being Christian has meant and still means today.
