Confidence lies at the heart of society, determining the success or failure of the economy, the government, companies, schools, churches and individuals. As Christians, we are called to proclaim our faith in God, but how can we build and maintain this confidence in an increasingly secularised culture where such faith is often seen as marginal, embarrassing or even downright dangerous? Using the story of David and Goliath as his starting-point, Andrew Watson shows how the Lord can indeed be our confidence, whatever the odds. He explores how God can develop a proper self-confidence within individuals and his Church, revealing the gospel through transforming words and transformed lives. He considers, too, how we can confidently tackle the challenges of day-to-day living, whether a difficult work situation or family relationship, or simply anxiety about the future. The book includes a discussion guide and is ideal as a whole church course on the subject of confidence.
Andrew Watson is Bishop of Guildford, and author of The Fourfold Leadership of Jesus (BRF 2008), Confidence in the Living God (BRF, 2009) and The Way of the Desert (BRF, 2011), a Lent book. In a five-star review of the Confidence book, Christianity magazine writes of Watson's 'searching biblical investigation, revealing character portraits, lively anecdotes, relevant application and readable style', which make this 'an outstanding expository book which is anchored in the real world'. The Way of the Desert brings these same qualities to the story of Moses and the Exodus.
