Impolite Questions for a Generous God brings life-analogy, humor, and broad cultural reference to the context of Christian faith in essay form. Does God answer prayers? Does he protect us? What is the plus side of a zombie apocalypse? What does the biblical book of Job have in common with society's fascination with vampires? And where do prayer and the Christian faith fit into all of this?The humorous and heartrending chapters in Impolite Questions for a Generous God move from personal narrative to cultural analysis (sometimes in the same essay). Covering topics ranging from the grief of the loss of a parent to the influence of the Star Wars saga on modern spirituality, these essays challenge the common assumptions of the Christian faith and the result is a rare and broad understanding of a God that refuses to be limited by our certainty as well as our doubts.
