Ein Mann ringt mit Gott – und mit sich selbst. In Ein Handel mit Gott erzählt Matthias Joos von einer persönlichen, spirituellen Reise, die nicht auf Wegen dogmatischer Gewissheit geht, sondern sich zwischen Zweifel, Stille und Gewahrsein entfaltet. Inspiriert vom biblischen Bild Jakobs, der mit Gott ringt und verletzt zurückbleibt, öffnet sich ein poetischer Raum für Fragen, Zweifel, Staunen und stille Gewissheit. Dieses Buch ist kein theologisches Traktat, sondern eine existenzielle Spurensuche.
