Publisher's Synopsis
In a world clamoring for certainty, what happens when your spiritual compass spins wildly, and the familiar maps of faith no longer make sense? The Compass Lost offers a radical and compassionate invitation to embrace disorientation not as a spiritual failure, but as a profound pathway to deeper faith.
Through rich biblical narratives-from the bewildered prophet Elijah to the fiercely honest laments of Jeremiah, and the clashing convictions of Peter and Paul-Laurence Muzembi illuminates how even the most revered figures wrestled with divine silence, unanswered questions, and the discomfort of unknowing. Drawing on the wisdom of mystics, the honesty of lament, and the courage of uninvited voices, this book challenges the myth of linear spiritual growth, revealing faith as a sacred spiral: a journey of returning to profound truths with softened edges, deeper reverence, and a resilient trust that transcends the need for tidy answers.
The Compass Lost is for anyone who has felt adrift in their faith, whose prayers echo into silence, or whose inherited certainties have fractured. It is a sanctuary for the weary, a companion for the wandering, and a testament to the liberating truth that you are not lost-you are profoundly beloved in the wandering. Discover how to find God's presence not in clarity, but in mystery; not in resolution, but in resonance; and how to walk faithfully even when the way forward is unseen.
Are you ready to embrace the sacred in your own unknowing?
