Sounds like a great book!! Maybe one that we could create sort of an "online" bookclub meeting for those of use who are homebound?

I've never heard the "booming voice of God" either, but have certainly had Him tell me He's around. And every time, it was thought-provoking and left me with more questions than answers. I really do embrace the mystery of Him for the most part. We'll get answers eventually and I'm quite OK with that.

This would be a great book for me to read right now, and I'm trying to learn to be still and hear God in my own life. Thanks for the chance to win a copy!
Have a great weekend with Riley and George ;)

I have always wondered about that as well as how others talked to him. I would love to hear your thought on that.

I love hearing and reading about this. I think it shows up so differently for everyone. Perhaps there are more ways than just the ways your used to hearing HIM talk to you, but you just have to be open to them!

I've pondered this same topic and would love to read the book. Thanks so much for the opportunity to win it!

This sounds like a wonderful and important book. I am a literal thinker who loves God. If I didn't already understand that His is not a literal voice, then I am sure I would be having my hearing checked.

Hey! Maybe they could put a chapter in about ice cream! Would God say Moose Tracks, too? ;)

Hi Gitz,
Honestly, I whould love to get this book. Can I get it anywhere? I am a newer Christian, and love reading anything that had to do about God. Expecially, anything that has to do with strengthning my relationship with Him.
Have a great weekend!!!

Sounds like a really good book...I have been forcing myself to be silent just so I can hear what it is that I am supposed to be doing...Not really "hearing" anything but I know it is there...I have recently opened that door back up so I am still holding onto ways of the past instead of looking forward...Maybe I need to be a little more quiet?

Meli · 8 months ago

Interesting book! If I don't win, I may have to go out and get it anyway. My moments of being spoken to have been that subtle urging, though once it seemed much more like an embrace. Thanks for sharing the title, so I can put it on my "To Read" list!

i definitely agree about God meeting you where you are at and speaking to you in specific ways. i am definitely interested in this book! thanks!

I think God speaks to me mostly through His Word. It is truly living and active! Sometimes, after He has answered a prayer, I'll smack myself in the head (think V8 commercial) and say, Lord I'm sorry, you answer and I don't even notice!

I GOT MY CANVASSES!!!! I love them. They are even more beautiful in person! Is it o.k. to link to you about them? Thanks so much! :-D

tam · 8 months ago

i need to pick up this book and read it with my son.

we were JUST talking about this last night. kota is very mindful and aware of those "i think God is gettin in my ear" moments. there are times when suddenly he will disappear into his room, come out later and share that he felt he needed to go read his bible cuz God needed to talk to him.

dude. youre 12! but he gets it. i told him what you said in your post. God is always trying to get out attention. we're just not always aware of it, be it our busyness or our mouths. we dont stop often or long enough to soak Him in.

Hi, not sure why the message I just left did not work, but wanted to make sure I mentioned how much I appreciate so many of your blog posts, your openness to share what God is teaching in and working on in you, and you work is such a blessing as well. I would love to win the book to give to a friend, if possible... thank you. Have a great day.

it is exciting to me to hear about your son, Tam... May God alway draw his heart continually after Him. May He pour His annointing and blessing and faith into your son and use Him in amazing ways for His kingdom. Remember how Daniel, Samuel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, each were so young, but even so early their resolve to follow God was sure and true. That is what I want for my kids, and that is what I desire even for your son, whom I have never met. Blessings on you and your family. May He "bless you, keep you, make His face shine upon you, and give you peace" (numbers 6: 24-26)

Mandy · 8 months ago

I've been interested in this book since I saw it on Matthew's blog. I'm not big on the emotional "God spoke to me" side of this, though I'm sure it happens, but rather a "God opens and closes doors" kind of speaking. It would be interesting to know what she thinks of it.

nursecarter · 8 months ago

Sounds like a great read. I too am very intrigued!!! Thanks for sharing.

Debra · 8 months ago

I know God speaks and when He speaks to me it's in a multitude of different ways. I know in my spirit He is speaking because my spirit reacts to His voice. I also always ask for confirmation so I am sure I am not hearing incorrectly or through my own agenda. But, I have heard Him audibly a few times and it's amazing. I agree with you and Jenny ... it's good to be still and quiet and listen. Let Him take the lead. That reminds me of a speaker, Louis Giglio, I heard who was talking about prayer and how we usually pray down our laundry list and then Jesus name, Amen. He said something like, How about praying, Hello Lord, I'm just going to sit hear and listen to what You have to say. Wow! That is life-changing! Great post!

This sure sounds like an interesting read. I also have never heard God audibly speak and always wonder what it's like. I think I am really bad at listening. My head is always filled with one worry or another.

Thanks for another giveaway opportunity this week. I hope you've had a good weekend. :)

Kate Gal · 8 months ago

I've felt that 'gut feeling' where I take that as God nudging me. Sometimes its a little nudge 'yes Kate, do that' other times its a pretty hard jab 'what are you thinking!?? STOP!!'
I'm not sure I've heard His voice but I keep looking for His hand, His guiding, His help.
I need it a lot. Will have to go out and get this book (if I don't win it)
