Searching For God Knows What

Donald Miller is becoming one of the popular and widely read authors of new Christian writing. Unlike his earlier books, which were made up of short, essay-length pieces on a variety of topics, SEARCHING FOR GOD KNOWS WHAT has a central, unified argument: that as seekers we are unhappy because we are seeking, in a nervous and frenetic manner, for the wrong things. The result is a fragmented and unfulfilled life, with only the prospect of more of the same. Miller believes in the integrity of things--and he counsels that once we realize we are seekers, and once we realize that the gospel of Jesus is the way, our lives will fall into harmony. Miller's way of presenting his Christian views have found audiences among those who have turned away from established religion, and who have sought a more meaningful and personal spirituality.
