Using the gospel story of Jesus' encounter with Zaccheus, Halik issues an invitation to people who stand (like Zaccheus did) on the sideline--curious but noncommittal. As demonstrated by Jesus' earthly ministry to the poor and oppressed, it seems He also has a special place in His heart for seekers and those on the margins of belief. With sensitivity and heart Halik explores the regions of faith and doubt and invites you to face them with patience through faith, hope and love.
