But he was growing disillusioned with the faith, at least inside the shell of organized religion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne Sunday morning, he preached to his congregation, \"I don't know what the word \u003ci\u003eGod\u003c\/i\u003e even means anymore.\" He soon left the church, but his quest for God became more intense than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eBitten by a Camel\u003c\/i\u003e, Dobson deconstructs much of what passes as Christianity, but on the foundation of Jesus and the Bible, he reconstructs a faith that is fulfilling, life-giving, and true-true to himself and true to God.

And it is ultimately, like the message of Jesus himself, hopeful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fortress Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781506417745\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.30w x 0.70d","brand":"Kent Dobson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52571135377589,"sku":"9781506417745","price":19.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/bitten-by-a-camel-leaving-church-finding-god-9781506417745","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
