What is more important to yousolving your problems or Finding God? In todays psychological culture, we have become a people more concerned with solving our problems than finding God. Suffer low self-esteem? Get counseling. Unfulfilled in life? Join a recovery group. But solving problems is not the point, argues Dr. Larry Crabb. In fact, whenever we place a higher priority on solving our problems than on pursuing God, we are being immoral! Dr. Crabb demonstrates that our deepest problem and worst sin is doubting God. When we doubt Gods goodness, when we think that God cannot be trusted with the things that matter most, we will quietlybut with tight-lipped resolvetake over responsibility for our own well beingwith disastrous results. In his most compelling book since Inside Out, Dr. Crabb upsets the cozy Christianity of the modern believer. He reveals a new Gods top priority: not our comfort and gratification, but His glory. Not since Chuck Colsons Loving God has a book so clearly challenged readers to fruitful Christian living. As Larry Crabb writes, "You know youre finding God when you believe that God is good - no matter what happens." Larry Crabbs Finding God takes the reader on the most exciting journey of all - the journey through our problems to finding God. WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID ABOUT THIS BOOK: "Writing out of wrenching personal experience, Dr. Crabb helps uncover the path that will bring us closer to God. He puts his finger on what keeps us from finding God, and he stirs a passion within us to know God better. If you read one book this week, make it this one." Dr. Charles Stanley "I know of no Christian writer since Bonhoeffer whose ruthless honesty and personal faith inspirit his literary work." Brennan Manning "With a contagious passion for God, Larry Crabb cuts through our preoccupation with our problems to a quest for God. This book is invaluable for all of us who struggle with the hurt of everyday life and who long for something better." Tremper Longman III "We can trust God in everything. This is the passionate message that I received from Dr. Crabbs book. Written with an authentic personal style, the book sucks you irresistibly into a deeper longing to know the only good God, both in the triumphs as well as the tragedies of life." Archibald D. Hart "Larry Crabbs stress on the centrality of God and the primacy of knowing him is profoundly right." J.I. Packer |
