At Odds With God
Adult Bible Study And Sermon Resource
Peter C. Garrison

"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
