Book Cover & Preview Text
Chapter 4 is about my faith and wavering during my mother's battle with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. This was the hardest chapter to write. I was unaware that I still had feelings that needed releasing. I thought it was my mother's battle, but it was mine too. We have to continue to hold on to our faith and believe that God's got it ----whatever it is! It will begin to take you out if you do not give it all to God.

About the Book
Just Have Faith: What to Do When You Cannot See What You Hope For finds the connections between the shared understandings of faith common to all Christians and the particulars of one woman’s journey as she strives to live by faith in her business and professional life, her home and family life, and her ministry and community life. Fanny Minnitt, a veteran and retired educator, asks and offers an answer to the basic question, “What is faith?” In a conversational and highly approachable manner, she draws upon the insights of the Scriptures, Christian writers, and her own experiences to explain the basics of faith and to apply those understandings to the various venues in which most people seek to live out their faith in God.
Just Have Faith does not avoid facing the fact that sometimes most—if not all—people confront challenges that test whether they have a faith in God that can withstand trials. By looking honestly at these moments, Fanny suggests to readers how they can surmount the hurdles that will come.
Just Have Faith traces the roots of faith in God and describes the ways that the branches of faith offer Christians support at work, with family, and in service to others.
