Human nature seems to demand that we seek to make sense of the meaning and purpose of events in our lives. And there is no greater struggle than trying to understand the pain and suffering that we and others we love often endure.  People of faith also struggle to reconcile the concept of a loving God and the reality of suffering. Despite the hope we are given, there is still despair and questions, such as:  Why did God let this happen? What does all this really mean in my understanding of God? Why can&’t I find peace in my heart?   Daniel E. Johnson opens a door on the suffering in his own life and how he has drawn meaning and hope from these painful journeys, providing a path for others lost in the darkness and hopelessness of doubt to discover comfort and peace in God’s unfailing love.  “When You Ask Why is succinct, well-written, direct, helpful, and encouraging. It touches your heart in its simplicity.” Zig Ziglar

Disposable: When Dating is Not Loving Your Neighbor…exposes the root of selfishness pervading the dominant dating culture of today and offers a better way to find love in the 21st century….Johnson’s work is a must-read for anyone, Christian or otherwise, who is pursuing a romantic relationship. -BlueInk Review (starred review) Johnson’s prose is polished, powerful, and to-the-point. His observations about the defects of the current dating scene are spot-on, and his faith-based ideas on how to mitigate them are clear and well defined….A dating guide that will enlighten, encourage, and instruct Christian readers. -Kirkus Reviews What if almost everything you’ve heard about dating and relationships is wrong? What if it’s really not about techniques or methodologies that promise success in finding that special someone? Are you tired of the dominant dating culture where people are considered disposable? Disposable explains that culture, which is based on selfishness, and draws a stark contrast between the selfishness of dating and the love called for by the great commandments, in particular, the commandment to love our neighbor. Disposable shows that these commandments would have us make friendship the basis of our relationships, including romantic ones. A historical review of marriage-minded relationships includes a discussion of how dating arose, how it evolved, and how friendship got shortchanged in the process. Practical suggestions are made for singles, and everyone is encouraged to embrace friendship—rather than selfishness—as the better basis for relationships. Thought-provoking questions are presented at the end of each chapter, which can be used for individual reflection and/or group discussion. Disposable will challenge your thinking about dating and give you a heart-check on what really counts in relationships. Disposable is suitable for younger adults trying to understand the dominant dating culture as well as for older adults trying to make sense of their past. approx. 38,000 words
