Does God care about the details of your life—your flat tire, that argument with your spouse, your finances? Absolutely! And God Is in the Small Stuff proves it. Bruce & Stan s modern classic launched a series of books that sold in excess of one million copies—now, it s part of a four-title paperback classics assortment. In their lighthearted yet thought-provoking style, Bruce & Stan encourage readers never to disregard the minor, seemingly insignificant things of life—because their infinite God is also intimate. God Is in the Small Stuff promises encouragement and challenge to readers at all levels of spiritual growth. This book exists as the antithesis of the ever-popular Don't Sweat the Small Stuff. Authors Bruce and Stan (how very camp counselor of them to only use their first names on the cover like that) feel that God was somehow snubbed by Dr. Carlson and decided to fix that with their own book. While there are some good points made by Bruce (Bickel) and Stan (Jantz), I feel like they should have actually bothered to read "Small Stuff" because they cover a lot of the same ground, just with a hyperfocus on God being a part of it all. There is even a chapter that tells you not to worry about the minor things you can't control... which is exactly the point of Dr. Carlson's book! As I said, there are some nice platitudes here, but I feel like good ol' Bruce and Stan should have paid a little more attention to what Dr. Carlson was trying to say in his book instead of immediately trying to counter with a more God-heavy version. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Bruce and Stan's newest book encourages readers not to disregard the minor, insignificant things in life. Rather, "God Is in the Small Stuff..."encourages a better understanding of God's infinite character, reminding readers that He is a personal and intimate God, involved in every detail of their lives, however minute. "God Is In the Small Stuff...and it all matters" contains 40 chapters, with titles such as "Remember that God Loves You," "Discipline Yourself (No One Else Will)," and "Contentment Won't Kill You." Each chapter includes an introductory commentary in the tongue-in-cheek Bruce & Stan style, followed by bits of pithy and sometimes humorous wisdom. No library descriptions found. |
