FAITHLESS

'This would be a good place to die. As I look at the stars I start to pray. I am, after all, a priest. I ask the God I thought I had been serving for the whole of my life to give me some measure of comfort, of absolution...Where is the white light, the tunnel, the voices, the angels? Nothing... God is not here, he isn't anywhere... I am born again. I am renewed.' Seth served as a priest for 10 years and 163 days and then he decided to die. Beginning with his bungled suicide attempt, his book charts a true story of poverty, haunting, exorcism, birth, death and murder, the incidents within his ministry that led him to that point. From dealing with a cult leader to performing an exorcism in a haunted house, an attempt on his life by a man who showed signs of being possessed, he fought with a wife-beating alcoholic and helped to rebuild a family after their baby died and their other children were all taken into care - Seth has seen the unimaginable. These incidents in his life have one common thread - a young man with little life experience struggling to find the right thing to do in desperate situations. All the time, his once boundless faith was dwindling, as logic and tragedy forced him onto a different path, and into a new life. If you have ever wondered about the spiritual realm and if it really exists or wondered about the life of a priest and what they experience while walking through a journey with God, Faithless bares all with a raw truth of experience. There is warmth and even hilarity as we get to know the characters who inhabit the estate, and a pastoral heart shines through. 284pp, paperback.
