Book Description

August 24, 2010
It is in our pain and desperation that we call out to a God who seems so distant. Our questions are endless. But what we find is that for all the questions we have for God...He has questions for us too. "Beginning at the End" will take you on a profound journey through the Biblical Book of Job. You will discover that its message goes much deeper than what appears on the surface...and so does your life. You will find that when you come to "The End," it is really just the "Beginning," when you encounter the Almighty God who offers forgiveness for the past, faith for the future, and grace for the present moment. "Cherie Hill has a heart for the brokenhearted. With true compassion she communicates God's personal and infinite love for all who suffer and who search for meaning. I highly recommend this book." -Father Jonathan Morris, author of "The Promise: God's Purpose and Plan for When Life Hurts," theological advisor in "The Passion of the Christ," and Fox News Analyst. "Cherie Hill is an author with a tangible passion. She exudes the flame of caring, concern, and love in her writing. She is a cheerleader for Jesus. " -Donald Parker, author of contemporary Fiction "Ms. Cherie Hill does all Christian readers a great service by going beyond the surface look at the Book of Job to reveal its deeper meanings: To guide us in how we should handle difficulties and problems that overwhelm us, to remind us to use times of troubles to draw closer to God, to give us the opportunity to wait patiently and listen for God, to beckon the call to forgive those who hurt us so that we can be kept from unrighteousness, to remind us to leave our pride behind and accept God's grace through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, and it's an invitation to rest comfortably in obedience as God does a work in us." -Donald M. Mitchell, Amazon.com top 10 Reviewer, Harvard Graduate, author, and CEO featured in Forbes Magazine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scriptural Answers to Life's Most Difficult Questions, November 14, 2010
This review is from: Beginning at the End: Finding God When Your World Falls Apart (Paperback)
Beginning at the End chronicles the life of Job, highlighting aspects of his trials, his questions and his faith. The author describes how Job was tested and brought to a place where his life appeared to be in ruins, or at "The End." Like Job, we face similar feelings of hopelessness and abandonment when circumstances in our lives also resemble ruins. The author points out that it is during these times that our faith can be shaken, as we doubt whether God is even aware of our suffering.

"In our ashes...we allow Satan to plant the seed of doubt that: God could have saved us and He didn't - He could have been there and He wasn't. We find ourselves consumed with disappointment and waging war in a fight for our faith." (pg. 54)

Our perceived "lack of action" on God's part, assaults our faith and makes us feel that God is indifferent to our trials instead of understanding that he is allowing them for reasons of his own. He does not always share his reasons with us, but we do know that he understands our questions and wants us to come to him with them.

Just as in Job's situation, the author reminds us that God wants communication with us.

"Nothing that you're feeling or saying will shock or surprise Him. Don't overlook the fact that in the book of Job, God also revealed to us that He's a good listener! Not once did He interrupt Job in all the chapters of Job's conversation with Him. God waited to speak...when Job was finished talking. Only when Job was silent, did God's silence come to an end." (pg. 279)

Heavily backed by Scripture, the author addresses many human emotions that accompany suffering: Hopelessness, despair, anger, un-forgiveness and doubt, and encourages the reader to find answers in God's Word.

One passage I found particularly poignant was the story of the silversmith, and the correlation with the verse in Isaiah. It was a wonderful reminder that not only is God with us at every moment in the valley, but that he knows just how long we will be there. His goal is not to leave us in the fire until we are destroyed, but to hold us there just long enough, until he sees himself in us.

Beginning at the End will provide Scriptural answers to questions generated during times of trial, and will encourage those who are suffering to see God's hand in the center of their circumstances.
