"Faith development cannot be divided into components. Rather it can be likened to the growth of a plant: seed, root, stem, leaf, bud, bloom. Each step happens in sequence, yet all are dependent on the earlier and continuing phases. All phases are the plant; the bloom is no more the plant than are the leaves or roots. So it is with faith: all phases are faith. Yet there is a distinct pattern of development." --from Chapter 1

It can become an even greater struggle when society accepts and endorses evil practices. In our Church and in our Nation, there have been questionable practices, some of which are accepted by our society, that make it more difficult to maintain or increase our faith in God. We will examine a few such evils in this book.
