Sweet little gift book. Answering question about God thoughtfully.
September 1, 2016
** “Finally God sent Jesus to show people how to live and to reconnect us with God. Jesus ended up dying on the cross for our sake — the ultimate sacrifice to save us from our sin. The he rose from the dead, showing that not even death can win against God’s love.” **
Featuring cute illustrations by Amylee Weeks (I love the owl!), “Has Anyone Ever Seen God?,” written by Carolyn Larsen, answers 101 frequently asked questions about God.
The author breaks the book into three parts: questions and answers about God, about God’s world, and about the Bible. Each page features a common question, with its answer and a verse from the Bible applicable to that topic.
In the first section, questions include, amongst many others, who God is and what His character is, who Satan is, what sin is, why God allows bad people to succeed, where is God when terrible things happen, and why He sent Jesus into the world.
The second section focuses on topics like why and how did God create the world and mankind, the Garden of Eden, do animals have spirits, and our responsibility toward creation.
And the third sections tackles issues like the Bible and its importance, how to study the Bible, and Jesus and the gospels.
Overall, “Has Anyone Ever Seen God?” is a good, basic introduction to many of the commonly asked questions about God and Christianity. Some of the answers are fairly generic, but this book offers a good overall synopsis — and it does it in a cute way with Weeks’ illustrations! “Gratitude” acts as a good general resource for those who already are believers, as well as new believers and those searching.
Four stars out of five.

Sometimes we all have questions, whether we are new to the faith or have been following Jesus for a while. It can be hard to go to another person with your questions because our pride can get in the way. So, an excellent source to take your questions to can be a book. That’s the target of the new series of books from Tyndale Momentum that take a look at the questions that believers might have. I received a copy of Has Anyone Ever Seen God? 101 Questions and Answers About God, the World, and the Bible a few days ago, and I’ve been flipping through it and reading it ever since.
In this book, Carolyn Larsen takes a stab at 101 of our most common general questions about the Bible and the God of the Bible. These questions include such questions as:
Can God read my mind?
Is God always truthful?
How do we see God’s power?
Why did Adam and Eve have to leave the garden?
What is a testament?
And there are many more questions besides those answered in a simple and easy to understand format.
This book is a lovely book. It’s a hardcover with pastel colored pages and small whimsical drawings on each page. It has a slightly feminine feel to it, but it’s not so overwhelming that a man wouldn’t enjoy reading the book. I could imagine this making an excellent gift book for a teenager, a disciple or someone who is new to the faith.

A lovely read that concisely answers 101 common questions about God and the Bible, with a pleasing layout and bound into a gift book format.
A lovely book to share and give as a gift to a new Christian or to someone who could use some cheer and comfort. It would also be perfect for reading with young children who have many questions that can be tricky to answer.
Each question is answered in about the length of a page, so of course it is impossible for every question to be answered in absolute thoroughness, but it does provide a great start in the right direction. The book serves it's purpose well and I was pleased with how concisely many of the questions were handled, while pointing to scripture for authority.
Overall, it was a pleasant and enjoyable read, that skillfully skims through and answers tough questions. It would make a lovely gift for someone who is a new Christian. A very well done read for its intended audience.
