Synopsis

Hard times make us look for God.Everyone has problems. But if we could solve all our difficulties ourselves, would we ever search for God? Psychologist John Townsend says "It is actually the very unfixability of our problems and our powerlessness to bring right results that keep us asking, 'Where is God?'"With a compelling narrative, Townsend offers new insights into the pursuit for God's help and presence. Designed to give readers hope and meaning, he divides the discussion into three parts:Why does a loving God allow us to experience difficulties?How is God active in the middle of our hard times?How can I find God?With powerful stories and practical applications, Where Is God? assures readers that even when it feels as though God is absent it is his nature to be in relationship, to connect with, love, and guide us. And when we seek him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, he shows up in ways that transform us forever.

Where Is God written by Dr. John Townsend addresses that question that many of us feel when life gets tough. Dr. Townsend uses personal accounts and scripture that illustrate his points.

This is a fantastic book for anyone but especially for those going through a particularly hard time and finding it hard to connect with God. John's personal stories as well as those of his clients were very relevant to the subject matter and inspiring.......more
