BOOK REVIEW: [5 STARS] This book was a breath of fresh air for me! Kathy Escobar goes where few have gone before in developing the concept of a step-by-step “Faith Shift” through the lens of her personal experience in the evangelical church. Okay, obviously I can relate, but Kathy makes the journey oh-so-clear when she explains the six different stages of a typical spiritual evolution, particularly coming out of conservative Christianity. Whether you’re in the midst of shifting or have come out fully, you will appreciate knowing you are not alone and will be able to identify with each step. During the “unraveling” stage, things get pretty hairy, but most people continue on to spiritual equilibrium and peace, whether they land as a progressive believer or sympathetic agnostic. Also a great book to share with your circle who may wonder what’s going on with you as a “faith shifter.” Cheers to Kathy! Read Faith Shift.
