Publisher's summary

If is a powerful little word. Some people are stuck in "if only", trudging through lives marked with regret. But God wants us to live lives marked with possibilities, with the "what if" attitude that looks forward to the future with confidence. Why? Because the answer to "if God is for us, who can be against us?" is "no one." God is always on our side. Every day in every way.

With his trademark enthusiasm and contagious joy, Mark Batterson helps listeners overcome feelings of guilt, fear, and doubt because in Christ there is no condemnation. Unpacking the promises of Romans 8, he shows listeners that they are more than conquerors - right now and forever. And because of that, the possibilities for their lives are limitless. Christians from all walks of life will find themselves set free by this inspiring and entertaining listen.

It wasn’t what I thought but it was what I needed and more. This was an incredible insight to take what you think and what it can be. Thank you 🙏

Such a powerful book

This is the first book I've listen to buy him, we are reading it on our Wednesday night services. I have been able to put it down, or stop listening to it. He has a wonderful way of blending history and God and modern stories to get the point across.

Encouraging, engaging

I enjoyed IF, although I found it to be kind of all over the place. Maybe IF 😆 I had read instead of listened, or IF hadn’t listened to the first 2 hours a few years ago and then picked it up and finished the rest this week, it would have felt more streamlined. But overall it felt like a jumble of stories and narrative to encourage us to trust God with our big dreams and futures. I’m in!
It was a good, encouraging listen for little snippets in the car and washing dishes.

Reset For The Heart And Mind

I used Mark Batterson's 'If' every year as a reset for how I focus on squarely putting God's will at the center of my dreams, goals and what if possibilities. Thankful to Mark for this gift.
