Can God Be Trusted?, (Paperback)

Does it make more sense to live life based on our own abilities and strength or to believe in a loving, personal God who promises to provide wisdom and strength to deal with the uncertainties and challenges that will surely come? This is a choice each person makes in their life's journey. Everything in our world seems to be getting worse, and life feels more like a challenge than an enjoyable opportunity. News stories permeate our media with accounts of pain, tragedy, corruption and turmoil. How do we find hope in the midst of this seemingly out-of-control world? This book seeks to point us to the source of real hope: to provide a foundation on which we can think rightly about how God is continually involved in our world and our lives. It is intended to broaden our understanding, solidify our thinking, and deepen our commitment to trust in God's faithfulness. Getting that in proper focus enables us to live in a way that reflects this faithfulness in the midst of a faithless world. At the end of the day each of us must choose how we will respond. Will we strive to make sense of it all through our own efforts, or will we seek to follow an ever-faithful God who provides the resources we need to live with meaning and hope? This book will help you conclude that trusting God truly does make the most sense. About the Author: Glenn W.
