When I Lay My Isaac Down:  Unshakable Faith in Unthinkable Circumstances by Carol Kent.

“Most of us who have walked with Christ for a few years find it relatively easy to trust God for “the small stuff”–occasional financial reversals, minor physical challenges, relationship struggles, disappointments, lost opportunities.  But an Isaac experience puts our relationship with God to the test.  Do we really believe He is good and loving when our life is irrevocably altered in a way that causes hardship and heartache?  When we experience a debilitating disease, accident, addiction, or heartbreaking loss due to another’s choice or our own, will we still love, trust, obey, honor, and worship the God we’ve claime to love, even in this?  Even if nothing changes (94)?”
