Excellent resource for anyone going through a tough time or those who work with or are companioning someone going through life's storms. James doesn't just write from a professional vantage point; he includes person anecdotes and stories that resonate with the reader. Whatever your are going through, reading this book gives you hope for a better future.

It is a good book and my daughter gifted it to me after the loss of my son. But I am 71 years old and I have been through a lot in my life. I could probably write my own book. I don't want to seem arrogant but my relationship with God is all I need to get through life anymore.

This book is only 100 pages long, but it is packed full of interesting anecdotes, stories, and other ways of illustrating the author’s point.
GPS is meant to help one who is going through one of life’s many storms, or is trying to help others get through them. The author speaks a good bit about attitude and how it helps influence what happens to us.
There are several good stories, but one is exceptionally helpful. It is about a good wolf and a bad wolf. There is a cute story about a four-year-old girl who tells it like it is.
We give GPS: Your Guide Though Personal Storms by Dr. James Coyle all five stars. It is well-written and should help everyone. It is written from a Christian perspective, but even non-Christians should find it to be helpful
