Who Am I?

<p>This book was written to encourage readers who feel disenfranchised from both mainline and evangelical churches—most often because of hierarchy and/or dogma—and to help them experience God anew as Divine Mystery and perfect love.<br /></p><p>Broadly this hopeful story is one of faith told in order to share about a God who can be experienced as full of unfathomable grace and love for all. Early in his life Rob Gieselmann was introduced to God and Christianity through a charismatic experience of being born again but over time that experience morphed into a stilted and predictable if legalistic relationship. After some struggle including the struggle over his own sexuality he encountered God a second time freeing him from any quid pro quo<i> </i>understanding of God’s nature. Although Gieselmann is the pivotal character in his own story this book is really about the mystery of God and the hope of love. Interspersed throughout the narrative are spiritual vignettes that touch on matters such as the spirituality of physics and the dynamism of everyday life; the lives of Jacob and the man born blind; and the very human challenge of forgiving others.</p>
