Publisher's summary

We are so quick to say we want "more" of God, but is that really true?

As strange as it may sound, the most misunderstood, misrepresented, and potentially the most feared person in Christianity may very well be God himself. Even seasoned Christians often view God as frightening, untrustworthy, and distant. But nothing could be further from the truth.

Author and filmmaker Darren Wilson takes a funny yet poignant romp through Scripture, revealing a longtime Christian's hang-ups and fears of a God he was supposed to love. Wilson looks at questions such as:

  • Is God selfish, silent, distant, and constantly disappointed in you?
  • How do you love someone you can't see and who has the power to punish you at any moment?
  • How can a loving God throw people into hell simply for not believing in him?

Wilson encourages listeners to be honest with themselves and with God. He challenges us to face the things many Christians struggle with but are too afraid to talk about because everyone else seems to have this faith thing figured out. He believes God isn't afraid of our questions, doubts, fears, or even our anger. The secret to peace and friendship with God lies in understanding who he really is.

Great book for all ages and walks.

This book is an encouragement to keep asking questions and dig deeper with God. Many questions talked about in this book I have wondered myself. I think there's something to learn for all ages levels.

Powerful. Simple. Helpful. An All Around Great book!

Given where I am in my walk with the Lord, the title caught my eye. Knowing how great Darren’s films are, I had high expectations for this book. It certainly did not disappoint.

I really appreciate Darren’s simple, conversational writing style. I feel like he’s talking TO his audience and not AT them. The message is simple. The stories and content are powerful. And this book was incredibly helpful for me in explaining certain ways that I thought and felt about God.

I highly recommend this book!
