God, I Understand: What Facing Mortality Taught Me about the Faith I Once Questioned
Jvion was raised in a Christian home-but faith was never something forced on him. As he grew older, curiosity turned into questions about prayer, religion, Jesus, the Bible, heaven-and even God Himself. Over time, those questions gave way to skepticism, and eventually, disbelief.
Then came a cancer diagnosis that forced him to confront his own mortality, followed years later by the unexpected loss of his oldest brother. Those moments didn't lead to a sudden "finding Jesus" story, but they did spark a deeper awareness of how faith shapes our understanding of life, loss, and purpose.
"This isn't a book of answers," Jvion writes. "It's about wrestling with doubt, searching for meaning, and discovering glimpses of faith in unexpected places. More than anything, it's about understanding, understanding myself, understanding life, and, in my own way, understanding God."
