How do we stand in the midst of the swirling winds of life that pull us in so many directions? How do we form a strong and practical faith when we face so many demands in life? Standish believes that people are seeking for answers to such questions and are seeking for a faith that will sustain them in the hard decisions of life. He has provided what he hopes will be a primer for forming and deepening a spiritual core that can withstand life's competing demands. The book examines the nature of faith, the role of prayer and community in strengthening faith, and ways in which persons are enabled to respond with compassion when confronting human need. Forming Faith in a Hurricane is designed to help persons recognize and practice fullness of faith in the ordinary routines and emergencies of daily life.
