God Is Still for You - by Bob Page (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

With wisdom and deep empathy, a seasoned chaplain reminds readers of God's steadfast, loving presence in their lives

When life turns upside down, the world's cruelty can feel crippling. Unexpected and devastating news like a diagnosis, betrayal, or layoff can make God feel distant--or nonexistent. It's natural to wonder where God is and whether he cares at all. Those who face trials need a reminder that God is still for them.

Bob Page, retired Air Force brigadier general, offers ten reasons to persevere in faith and move toward a life of renewed hope and purpose. God Is Still for You invites readers to sit with a battle-seasoned chaplain, who knows firsthand how painful life can be, and ask the hard questions. With decades of experience in active duty, Bob personally understands how dark it can feel to believe God is absent.

Each chapter highlights Scripture, contains real-life stories, and ends with a clear statement of why the reader can be sure that God is still for them. With biblical truth, fresh and compelling retellings of Bible stories, and a wise and personal writing style, Bob will guide readers to find hope.
