Truly enjoy the writing of Bill Hybels; relatable, common sense and real. He did not disappoint in this offering on listening for God's whispers. This is the book I will take with me on my next prayer day, as a great review and preparation for quietly listening. Probably the key point Hybels made was that God speaks His word back to us--if I have not been mulling on passages or committing Scripture to memory, those words do not come back to me when I am looking for answers, comfort or direction.
Mostly I loved the personal stories about how God met this man in his need; sometimes broken, sometimes defeated, sometimes fearful. No matter what I think about huge churches, programs and hype--this is about the daily struggles of one who has loved and served God in both good and bad times.
