The Stepper: God's Relentless Pursuit

by Jerrad Hardin

This book demonstrates God’s relentless pursuit for our souls while also portraying the tremendous and profound love that can be shared between a grandson and his storytelling grandfather who will teach the young boy all about perseverance, faith, perspective and forgiveness.  This unique story of how God used the death of a boy’s grandfather to capture his attention in an incredible eye-opening way will resonate with all the people who put their faith in Him, as many will relate with the challenges to be faithful to God, while ultimately finding comfort in God’s willingness to absolve His followers for questioning Him. If you have found your faith wavering, or if you are simply seeking to reaffirm your faith in God , this page-turning book will certainly help you in achieving exactly that. Through the accounts shared in this sometimes heart-warming but also heart-breaking story , readers will come to see the irrefutable proof that God has always been present and in pursuit of the author’s soul. The simply incredible way in which God chose to reveal himself to this man will serve to reaffirm the belief of many, but in this specific case it changed the author’s life completely. As he was dealing with the painful loss of his beloved grandfather, God revealed Himself to the author at 4:44 in the morning upon being challenged by the grief-stricken author , only a few hours after the passing of his grandfather. Many will dismiss this fact and wave it away skeptically, but after several other incidents with the author’s family members and hundreds of unique related incidents involving the mysterious number combination, the author’s belief was cemented. Discover how the author’s grandfather molded him to be the best possible version of himself that he could be, and bring glory to God by doing so, and how that influenced the author’s relationship with God and his grandfather after he passed. Whether you believe or not, one thing is sure, whatever life may challenge us with, faith in God will get you through the harshest of hardships, and that is what this book aims to teach and show you.

The Stepper: God’s Relentless Pursuit by Jerrad Hardin – wow what a beautiful, beautiful book about love and life and a God who relentlessly pursues us. The Stepper is a work that will really soothe your soul as you read about the beautiful relationship that the author had with his grandfather.
Jerrad Hardin’s grandfather was full of life and love and humour. He taught the author many life lessons. A diagnosis of lung cancer did not get him down. It merely gave him time to spread his love wider and deeper. The author however battled to see God. “If God is there, why is this wretched disease here?”
Many meaningful conversations happened. I loved the description of death. “ ‘Maybe it’s [death] like turning off a light.’ ‘No, Grandpa, death is when the light turns on.’ “
Like many, Jerrad Hardin had no time for God. He actually spent his time actively running away. “Had I … glimpse[d] over my shoulder, I would have noticed God running after me.” What a beautiful image that conjures up… God runs after us.
What believers see as God instances, Jerrad Hardin dismissed as coincidences. There was no place for God in his life. “I had been running away from Him [God] for years.” Fortunately God does not give up so easily. “Ever since I took my first step away from God, He followed me in a relentless pursuit.” Unable and unwilling to keep on running, the author issued God an ultimatum – to show Himself to be real – what happened next was truly amazing – and you must read the book to find out.
The Stepper is a work of great beauty. Love shines from its pages. I am left feeling calm and peaceful.
I urge you to pick up The Stepper today and let the peace of God invade your soul.
I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.

The Stepper

I loved the realness of the book, the stories shared between a generation, that were life lessons. But most of all I loved the message that Hod is always there and ready for us. Even when we have done everything in our power to push him away.
