“ One of the most persistent problems I face when counseling Christians of all ages is loneliness. This is despitethe fact that technology has made us instantly accessible to one another, no matter where we are in the world.Technology cannot undo the truth, though, that apart from Christ, we are lost in the cosmos. In this book, DanDarling offers a guide for finding connection and community in an age of pixels and bandwidth. Read andconsider.”—Russell D. Moore, dean, the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

“Many question whether the ancient truths of Christianity connect with the instant expectations of postmodern culture. Darling answers with both a biblical and applicable approach for those in doubt. iFaith is the perfect response for the digital generation. Read it, live it, and forward it to a friend!”

-Dillon Burroughs, professor and bestselling author of What Can Be Found in LOST

“If I had written an appropriate endorsement for an earlier generation, I would have used words like super, groovy, neat, and perhaps even it rocks. Dan Darling hits exactly the right tone for this generation; therefore, I’d say it’s awesome and so there.”

—Cecil Murphey is the author or co-author or co-author of more than 100 books, including 90 Minutes in Heaven (with Don Piper) and Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story.

“If you want to connect more deeply to God, read IFaith. Daniel deftly weaves heartfelt stories with the struggles biblical characters faced as he challenges the reader to a deeper spiritual life. As an added bonus, each chapter includes fresh insight and practical pointers that will enrich your walk with Christ.”

—Charles Stone, Senior Pastor, Ginger Creek Community Church, Aurora, IL, author of 5 Ministry Killers

iFaith is not a normal book and Daniel Darling is not a normal author. He has written a clever, meaty, biblical and practical manual for living with Jesus day by day. The Internet is all about connections, and this book is all about connecting with God in the 21st century. How do iPhones, email, Facebook and Google inform and shape our faith? How can we cling to old-time Christianity while embracing increasingly powerful technology?  This is not just a book you’ll read and put down. It’s a book you’ll mull over and share with friends. It’s also a perfect resource for small groups or Sunday School classes. Through this book, you’ll not only see Jesus formed more deeply in you, you might even discover him smiling back at you in your text messages and Facebook posts.

—Bill Giovannetti, pastor, author of How to Keep Your Inner Mess from Trashing Your Outer World,and professor at A.W. Tozer Theological Seminary.

My generation is so good at creating an app for that, which our hearts desire. Not so much for connecting with God. That’s why I believe iFaith: Connecting With God in the 21st Century a must read for those figuring out God, Google, and Grace.

-Renee Johnson, Devotional Diva™ spirited speaker and writer to the 20-somethings. Author of “Faithbook of Jesus” and creator of Throw Mountains a revolution for young adults.

“Daniel tackles one of the thornier issues in our no-waiting, instantly-downloadable approach to faith. As Daniel so aptly points out, faith is about the wait. I have come to expect that when I read something Daniel Darling has written, I will be challenged and pushed to think deeper. This book is no exception.”—Jennifer Kennedy Dean, best-selling author Live A Praying Life
