Doubt: Trusting God's Promises
Whether you're new to the walk of faith or have been a Christian for decades, you probably find yourself wondering: Is it all really true? If so, why isn't my life what I hoped it would be? And, most of all, why am I still struggling to believe? Our trouble with doubt is discouraging--but it doesn't mean we're alone in our Christian walk! We are naturally prone to unbelief; all Christians are Doubting Thomases. The Bible itself is full of people who doubted--sometimes while talking directly with God! Elyse Fitzpatrick reminds us of famous Bible characters who doubted, offers evidences to bolster our belief, and relays the promises God has made to those of little faith. Each day's devotional has two takeaway truths to memorize or write out, plus an invitation for personal reflection, to help you say "I believe; help my unbelief" when discouraged by your doubt.

Praise for this book
This is one of those books that's exceptionally easy to recommend to others--but harder to admit that you need to read for yourself. I am convinced of a great many things, but when I'm lying awake at night my imagination conjures up doubts that terrify me. Whether you consider yourself to be strong in faith or are floundering in your doubts, please read this book and gaze at the face of Christ as he is revealed in God's Word. Elyse's counsel is clear and compassionate, because God's Word is clear and compassionate.--Gloria Furman, Author, Alive in Him and Missional Motherhood
When we suppress our doubts, they grow stronger. But when we talk them through with friends in an environment of total honesty, our faith grows stronger. Elyse Fitzpatrick's wonderful new devotional on doubt helps us to bring our misgivings and hesitations out into the open. This book is ideal for a small group of friends, as they walk together through a one-month journey to discover why we're not crazy to believe in Jesus.--Ray Ortlund, Senior Pastor, Immanuel Church, Nashville
This devotional is a vulnerable and honest look at the struggles that people have with doubt. Elyse's words restore hope to those whose lives feel pummeled with questions. Her day-by-day approach provides refreshing space for readers to ask hard questions while coming face-to-face with the faithful love of God. Each page is brimming with biblical truth and reminders that God doesn't despise us in our questioning but meets us with mercy.--Eliza Huie, Counselor; Director of Life Counseling Center, Marriottsville, Maryland
Nobody who I know writes with more gospel sanity, spunk, and savvy than my friend Elyse Fitzpatrick. This little gem on doubt only confirms that conviction. My biggest takeaway from Elyse's new book is that doubt isn't to be despised or denied but owned and stewarded. To doubt isn't just to be human but also to find our place in the history of redemption with brothers and sisters who, like ourselves, know, believe, and trust in part. Jesus's grasp of us, not our grasp of him; his perfect righteousness, not our perfect faith; his fullness of grace and truth, not our absence of doubt and struggle; will win the day--and bring the Day for which we long.--Scotty Smith, Founding Pastor, Christ Community Church, Franklin, Tennessee; Teacher in Residence, West End Community Church, Nashville
