![]() Ninguno Actualmente no hay Conversaciones sobre este libro. I admit that I picked up Mostly What God Does by Savannah Guthrie because I recognized the author’s name. Right away, Guthrie correctly informs the reader that this book is not a memoir (though she shares some life experiences). The subtitle aptly describes the book: Reflections on Seeking and Finding His [God’s] Love Everywhere. It’s not a memoir. It’s not a typical devotional. It is thirty-one honest reflections written in a conversational manner. In Mostly What God Does, Guthrie divides the book’s content into sections: love, presence, praise, grace, hope, and purpose. The positives of Christian faith (love, grace, heaven, community) are present, but the hard topics also appear. (Why does a good God allow suffering and evil? Is our view of God incorrect?) Guthrie admits to not understanding everything, which I appreciate because I can relate. However, she takes what she believes and exhorts readers to authentically practice the tenets of traditional Christian faith. I liked the entry lengths in Mostly What God Does. At 3-5 pages long, the entries are substantially more than a single-page daily devotional, but less than a full chapter within a Christian living book. For me, this was an ideal length. Two entries that stood out to me were: Chapter 7: God’s Telephone Number and Chapter 20: He Reclined. I found Mostly What God Does: Reflections on Seeking and Finding His Love Everywhere by Savannah Guthrie to be thoughtful and interesting. The book holds reminders of spiritual truths to uplift the reader while also encouraging the reader to intentionally practice his or her beliefs.

Persuasively renders the evolution of a hard-won religious belief that makes room for imperfection. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Savannah includes personal anecdotes that give this book a memoir flavor, plus her honest reflections and spiritual questions are thoughts I’ve had, and probably you’ve had too. She doesn’t have all the answers, but her responses, with input from spiritual leaders and the Bible, help to put things in perspective. It’s always about making a connection with God.
I found this book to be encouraging and biblically grounded. The writing was easy to read and understand. I appreciated the honesty, questions, doubts, and fears Savannah expressed. It isn’t negative, heavy, or superficial. This personal collection of essays is thoughtful and engaging and inspiring. As well as a reminder that “mostly what God does is love you.” (
