About the author

Bob Sorge is “the speaker who can’t talk”—that is, he is reduced to a whisper because of a debilitating vocal injury he suffered over 20 years ago. Through the journey, God has given him an empowering message that explores God’s purposes in fiery trials. It’s not the fire that changes you but your pursuit of God in the fire that changes you. Bob has a unique way of helping us process our journey so we stay in the race and overcome. Whether you’re reading one of his books or listening to him, you’re about to receive a message from the heart of God that will strengthen your faith and draw you into greater intimacy with Jesus.

this book was incredibly riveting and inspiring. i loved how he explores the way that god writes stories, and how it is fundamentally different to how humans want things to work out — we wish for quick breakthroughs and progress, for instant results, but god is about building up tension and bringing us through periods, so that when the breakthrough finally comes, it comes incredibly dramatically and fast. although gods plot line may not make sense to us, but we can trust the divine author - that he knows what he is doing. this book inspired me to keep waiting in anticipation, believing that things are moving behind the scenes, and keeping me on the edge of my seat as i see how my own life story unfolds.

The sub-title is “God is writing your story”. The premise is that everything in your life is part of the story with God as the author. He explains how we may not understand or see what is happening, but God is weaving it all together if we will wait on His timing to reveal. He spends several chapters on Jacob and how Jacob's entire life was one of waiting.
Perhaps I read this too soon after finishing _Unrelenting Prayer_ as I feel they're very similar. Both books speak to waiting on the Lord for His timing to bring resolution to the battles in our lives. I generally really enjoy his books, and I did enjoy it, but because of reading the other one, much of this felt repetitious to me.

Short, simple, but revealing. A few things seem like a stretch of interpretation but nothing seems unbiblical about those interpretations. Very good read for anyone wondering about the purpose of hardship in their life or wondering about why they matter to the body of Christ.

SO GOOD. The best of his works that I have read thus far. Or maybe that's just because it is meeting me where I'm at right now. But still: very good!
