God Is God and I'm Not: How God’s Sovereignty Matters Every Day

by Timothy Z. Witmer, Rob Reider (Narrator)

At times, the ups and downs of life can leave us feeling lost at sea. When the winds of shifting circumstances bring trials beyond our control, where can we find an anchor for our souls? For Christians, our safe harbor in both the calm and the storm is found in God alone.

In this book, Dr. Timothy Witmer offers encouragement for anyone who is worn out by the changing tides of the truth that God is in control. He pairs biblical insight with practical application, helping us find comfort in our sovereign God, no matter what lies ahead.
