It seems people don’t get along easily with God. That’s true in the Bible and true out of the Bible in today’s world, writes Peter C. Garrison. That’s why I wrote this book: to help people understand that God understands and is patient with us. At Odds With God meets many needs. It is a six-session adult Bible study. It is a resource for six sermons, with suggested orders of service. It offers thought-provoking questions, which lead Christians to recognize the conflicts addressed in this book as their own.

Each chapter consists of a story (sermon resource), accompanying scripture, discussion questions, reflections on the chapter theme by a famous Christian, a prayer starter, suggestions for practicing prayer, and a suggested order of worship.

Chapters focus on these Bible personalities:

• Adam and Eve
  
• King Ahaz
  
• Judas
  
• Balaam, the Donkey and the Angel
  
• Pontius Pilate
  
• Ananias and Sapphira

Peter C. Garrison is pastor of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Burlingame, California. This is his fifth CSS book. Previous books include a Lenten sermon series, a guide for godparents, and a study series for clergy support group.
