Synopsis

It is woven into the fabric of modern evangelicalism. The subject of numerous books, conferences, and sermons every year, it’s promoted as essential for a vibrant relationship with Christ, and a measure of the maturity of your faith. What is it? Hearing God speak personally, outside of Scripture.But is God trying to speak to you through signs, impressions, and subtle promptings? Is He whispering to you in a still, small voice, hoping to grab your attention? Does Scripture promise that every Christian will receive personal, private revelations from the Lord?In God Doesn’t Whisper, Pastor Jim Osman examines the assumptions, practices, and proof texts of those who promote a theology of hearing the voice of God. Dig into the texts often cited in defense of trying to hear God speak outside of His written Word. Scripture is clear: God doesn’t whisper.

2.5 star for me. I really struggled with this book. Right from the beginning his tone and anger comes across loud and strong. It was quite off putting. I understand he’s very passionate about this topic but I think the strong bias coloured everything and some of his views about what the other preach......more

Goodreads review by Ayden on February 02, 2021

This book was very easy to read, understand, and follow. Jim Osman does an amazing job of clearly outlining the beliefs of the Hearing the Voice of God group, including the Scriptures they cite, and then showing the context of the Scripture, and why the theology is inaccurate and heretical.
