The fact is that many of us struggle with a gap between what we believe about God and how we encounter him in our everyday lives. We don't want our faith to be merely conceptual--we want to experience it viscerally--and yet we often come up against one or more of these major <em>gaps</em>: </p><ul><li>I believe God loves me but I don't feel it.</li><li>I believe God is with me but I don't see him.</li><li>I thought I'd be further along in my spiritual progress by now.</li></ul><p> </p><p>In <em>The Expectation Gap</em> Steve Cuss--pastor and founder of the leadership organization Capable Life--offers tangible tools for engaging with God in a deeper more soul-satisfying way. You'll unveil harmful expectations and patterns that keep you spiritually stuck so that you can replace them with habits and practices that will lead to a more vibrant faith life.</p><p>This is the most helpful book I've read in my thirty-five years of ministry when it comes to recognizing naming and bridging the gap between what we believe about God and what we experience from God. --<strong>Christine Caine</strong> <em>founder of A21 and Propel Women</em></p>
