Joni Eareckson Tada (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 1, 1989

Discover Peace, Perspective, and Healing.

From a human perspective, God often appears to be an intruder. He presumes, invades, and infringes upon our lives. At times, God encroaches with gentle, subtle reminders - at others, with sudden, devestating judgement.

God is not tucked away in some far corner of the universe, uncaring, unfeeling, unthinking...uninvolved. You can count on it - He is intimately involved with the tiniest details of your existence. Learn how His constant presence can bring peace, perspective, and healing into the puzzling and chaotic circumstances of your life.

This review is from: Glorious Intruder: God's Presence in Life's Chaos (Paperback)

If you think God doesn't care about you and every aspect of your life- I invite you to read this book. It's set up in sections with subtopics for a quick read (a page or two) on a subject. Not lengthy and boring. Joni basically opens up her life experiences with God and invites you to see His "Glorious Intrusions" in her life. It's not about religious mumbo jumbo- it's about Joni's own personal journey in relationship with a real, loving Spiritual Father. I've had this book for many years and still go back to it, time and time again. It is a source of encouragment to me. We all need to be encourged- this book will do that and much more. I hope you get this book and read it- you won't be sorry.
