Finding God in the Questions: A Personal Journey - Hardcover

"While peppered with gently humorous asides and personal observations, the overall focus of the book is not on Johnson himself but on the questions he explores."--Publishers Weekly, March 8, 2004 (starred review)

"I've worked with and admired Dr. Tim for more than fifteen years. His life and career--the way he conducts himself both in private and on TV--have always been extraordinary role models for me. That's why I'm thrilled that readers around the world will now be able to get to know the Dr. Tim I've come to cherish--a man of rare integrity and wisdom, boundless generosity and deep faith."--Michael Guillen, former science editor, ABC News

"Tim Johnson has excelled in two of the most skeptical arenas of American life--media and medicine--while holding on to a strong and intelligent faith. Now America's best-known TV news doctor shares his own questions and his decades-long journey making sense out of the faith that shapes his life."--Peggy Wehmeyer, host and managing editor, World Vision Report, and former religion correspondent, ABC News

"Dr. Johnson treats the soul as a wise physician treats the body, with honesty, tenderness and compassion. His introspective look at his own spiritual journey helped illuminate my own."--Philip Yancey, author of Rumors of Another World and What's So Amazing About Grace?

"Dr. Timothy Johnson takes the reader on an exciting and highly informative spiritual journey. He casts a medically trained and critical eye on the evidence for answers to questions that haunt every human being--questions concerning our identity, our purpose in life and our destiny. Both the believer and the unbeliever will find this excellent book so challenging and so absorbing they will find it difficult to put down."--Armand Nicholi Jr., M.D., Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, and author of The Question of God

"If you've ever wondered whether Christian faith can hold up to the toughest questions of our day, this is the book for you. Dr. Timothy Johnson gives us a relentlessly honest exploration of the biggest questions of all: Can we believe in God in the face of the discoveries of science? And can Christian faith really be credible for a tough-minded seeker? Dr. Johnson never settles for easy answers. Along the way he offers wonderfully practical counsel for living not just the spiritual life but the good life. He has given us a wise, vigorous, inspiring guide for the religious quest."--Dr. Sam Lloyd, Dean, National Cathedral, Washington, D.C.

"To all of his colleagues here at ABC News, Timothy Johnson has always been a generous dispenser of medical advice and balm to the soul. To accompany him now on these chapters of his own spiritual journey is to find confirmation of the possibility that great accomplishment and humility can coexist."--Ted Koppel, former Anchor and Managing Editor, ABC News Nightline

"Dr. Tim Johnson, minister and physician, brilliantly analyzes his struggle with religious belief when juxtaposed to emerging scientific discoveries. The result is a deep humanitarian exposition of the significance of the teaching of Jesus, which provides a firm foundation for addressing life's challenges."--Dr. Joseph Martin, Dean, Harvard Medical School
