David KubyThe author experienced resilience as a toddler, teenager, and college student through the heroic and empowering love of others. When David lost his mother as a toddler, his teenage sister, Jane, took over and provided him with the resilient intimacy e needed-a "secure attachment." When he lost his substitute mother as a teenager, his eighth-grade nun healed his grief by fostering his creativity. As a college student, David experienced a loss of faith, which had sustained him. David was passionate about recovering his lost faith, leading him to pursue degrees in Philosophy and World Religions. Eventually, he embarked on a journey to study Christian conversion in Africa as a "participant observer." However, his small boat, functioning as a detached observer, unexpectedly went over the falls and immersed him in the deep waters of rich, authentic worship. This experience facilitated a full and heartfelt recovery of his lost faith, which this book serves as a testimony of spiritual resilience. Read More Read Less
