"You Can Hear the Voice of God" by Steve Samson is a clearly laid out book talking about all the ways God "talks" to us. They aren't always burning bush moments. Far from it. Usually it's a nudge or a sudden thought out of nowhere. Each chapter in this book outlines a different way in which God speaks to His kids, what to expect, what it might mean and how to make the most of it.
In one part, Mr. Samson points out that most Christians "miss the supernatural because they are waiting for the spectacular." So true. If you have it in your head that God can't possibly be talking to you because gold dust isn't falling from the ceiling, than you're going to miss out on a thousand conversations with the Loving Creator of Everything. I spent years, YEARS of my life telling God my grocery list instead of conversing with Him. What a tragedy. It doesn't have to be the same with you though. You, right now can start this incredible journey and this book will definitely help.
I enjoyed this book and think it should be read by everyone. It started out well enough and then just when it started to lose my interest, picked up in a big way so stay with it. I find myself quoting this book numerous times a day. That in itself has to tell you something. I've been consumed by this subject lately (meaning I've read many books on the topic.) If it had been the first one I'd read on the subject, I would be saying absolutely nothing but glowing remarks. If you haven't read a single book on how to hear from God, this is a great place to start.
God Bless.
BTW, I got a free copy from Bethany Publishers in exchange for an honest review.
