Where Is God? A Book Review

As a pastor, I do a lot of counselling. One of the books I find myself often recommending to people is Boundaries by Henry Cloud and John Townsend. So, when I learned that John Townsend had released a new book, Where Is God?, I knew it would be on my reading list.

The book didn’t disappoint. Townsend asks the question that almost everyone has asked at some point: Where is God when I’m going through bad times? He is open about some of his own experiences in dealing with that question.

He responds by not giving the cliche answers, but rather by offering some deep insight in how God works in the midst of our trials. As you move through the pages of this book, faith is strengthened, and the answer to the question becomes obvious. God is there when we struggle.

If you’re going through a tough time, this is a great book. It will give you a little perspective as you call out for God’s help in the midst of your situation. I believe it will encourage you not to give up.

You can find the book on Amazon and Chapters.

(Disclosure: I was given a free copy of the book with the agreement that I would post a review about the book. I had the freedom to post any type of review, positive or negative.)

    Boy, this couldnt have been a better entry to read today as I struggle in watching a friend deal with her son loosing his battle with cancer. I was praying to our Father, The God of Micracles knowing that one may not be in His plan! I will go take a peak at this book to provide some comfort for my friend. Gladly, the family members are faithful children of our Father! That is a huge praise!!
    Thank you for sharing this book review…God’s hand was all over me reading this one.
