About this listen

Read by the author.

#1 New York Times Bestseller

Guthrie persuasively renders the evolution of a hard-won religious belief that makes room for imperfection and "does not require us to ignore... the sorrows we experience or the unjustness we see but to believe past it." This openhearted offering inspires.—Publishers Weekly

Mostly what God does is love you.

If we could believe this, really believe this, how different would we be? How different would our lives be? How different would our world be?

If you ever struggle with your connection to God (or whether you even feel connected to a faith at all!), you're not alone. Especially in our modern world, with its relentless, never-ending news cycle, we can all grapple with such questions. Do we do that alone, with despair and resignation? Or do we make sense of it with God, and with hope? In these uncertain times, could believing in the power of divine love make the most sense?

In this collection of essays, Savannah Guthrie shares why she believes it does. Unspooling personal stories from her own joys and sorrows as a daughter, mother, wife, friend, and professional journalist, the award-winning TODAY show coanchor and New York Times bestselling author explores the place of faith in everyday life.

Sharing hard-won wisdom forged from mountaintop triumphs, crushing failures, and even the mundane moments of day-to-day living, Mostly What God Does reveals the transformative ways that belief in God helps us discover real hope for this life and beyond.

A perfect companion to your morning cup of coffee, this incisive volume—not a memoir but a beautiful tapestry of reflections crafted as a spiritual manual—includes:

  • a fresh, biblically rooted look at six essentials of faith: love, presence, grace, hope, gratitude, and purpose;
  • an honest exploration of questions, doubts, and fears about the love of God;
  • a dose of encouragement for the faith-full, the faith-curious, and the faith-less; and
  • …and much more.

This deeply personal collection is designed to engage the practical ways that God loves you—not just the world, but you—and to inspire you to venture down a path of faith that is authentic, hopeful, destiny-shaping, and ultimately life-changing.

I just finished this… I was hooked on her insight and candor from the first paragraph… I loved it so much I bought a print copy as a journal prompt for myself. This is simply a must read … or at least listen to book. Who would have thought my soft news favorite from the Today Show was so wise and insightful… I will probably listen to or read from certain chapters every day going forward until I can’t read, hear … and/or I’m dead. I am not an influencer and I don’t get nor do I want any commissions for my endorsement… I just want you to read this book for you… to make your life and perspective a little richer… because the message is as simple as … What God Does is Love You. I am tasked to live in the light as well… so out of love… I encourage you. Take from it what you want… this is not preachy it’s insightful commentary about life, love, and purpose.

A must read… and if you ever want to give a thoughtful gift… this is it

This is just what I needed, Savannah does such an amazing job. I can just hear it and rehear it over and over is that good. I lost both my parents in a span of three years and is moments like this that you tend to question your faith. Grief can do that to you. This book has helped me with not only that but other personal aspects it has helped me find that road back to my faith.

Love it

Bravo to Savannah Guthrie for telling the story. I deeply appreciate her stepping out of her comfort zone to tell the greatest story of all and for doing so in such a beautiful and tender and authentic way. I was moved, challenged and inspired. For those who don't know God I encourage you to open up the pages or hit play and be introduced to a God who deeply loves you and cares for you.

Authentic beautiful telling of God's deep love for us all!

The author is a word wizard and makes the reader go, “That’s right, that’s right. “
Not only do you read the book, but you feel the book. Her examples are commonplace and easily understood. Her personal experiences make you feel like you’re having coffee and discussing life in general, oh and how do you feel about Jesus?
All in all, a superlative book that I will read again and again when I need a reminder that mostly what God does is love me.

Right on target!

In this world of secular political correctness, it was refreshing to hear Savanah share her faith. She works in a field that doesn't exactly embrace the attitudes she shares in this book. I will definitely listen again.

Courageous faith

You can read this book forward, backward, beginning even in the middle. Each chapter can stand on its own.
At times tears ran down my cheeks, not because it was sad or even because the writing made me sad but because the words, the thoughts spoke so deeply to my heart & soul. This is a book I can come back to over & over to be reminded of God’s all encompassing love. Thank you Savanna.

Unabashed truth in the most loving way.

The ultimate sharing

This book gets to the heart of our spiritual questions, issues and with great love and wisdom and simplicity paints a beautiful picture of the God who loves us, created us in community, delights in us and hovers over us.

Outstanding provocative comforting book!
