Two award-winning bestsellers by Philip Yancey to help you sift through popular misconceptions about God and Jesus so you can build your faith on the truth. An amazing deal!

Philip Yancey has a gift for articulating the knotty issues of faith. In The Jesus I Never Knew, he sets his preconceptions aside and takes a long look at the Jesus described in the Gospels.

How does the Jesus of the New Testament compare to the "new, rediscovered" Jesus - or even the Jesus we think we know so well? Yancey uncovers a complex character who generates questions as well as answers; a disturbing and exhilarating Jesus who wants to radically transform your life and stretch your faith.

Disappointment with God poses three questions that Christian wonder but seldom ask aloud: Is God unfair? Is God silent? Is God hidden?

This insightful and deeply personal book points to the odd disparity between our concept of God and the realities of life. Why, if God is so hungry for a relationship with us, does he seem so distant? Why, if God cares for us, do bad things happen? What can we expect from God after all?

Yancey answers these questions with clarity, honesty, and biblical assurance, helping us see beyond the cynicism that life's disappointments can breed and point us to a stronger, wiser faith.
