More from Sarah

Our Trustworthy God is the result of years of seeking. I knew I was supposed to trust God… but. I struggled with the buts of trusting God. There are too many to name, and they usually start with “why?” Some examples are when good people have bad things happen to them, why? When someone we love has died too soon, when our best friend gets cancer, when a hurricane strikes and whole towns are lost. For me, it was cancer in the family and even starting my own business. I couldn’t really understand, or “feel” that everything was working out for my good. Trusting God wasn’t exactly an on-command reflex when I thought of these things. It was easier to wonder where God was rather than trust that he IS and will always be here.

But I wanted more than to believe he was here, I wanted to know deeply that God was working for my good, even when all I saw was destruction and evil. So, I spent a year dedicated to digging in and seeking to understand what trusting God really means. I wanted to know how trustworthy God is, all the time. I didn’t want that knowledge to remain in my head, but I wanted it in my heart. I wanted it to be the automatic reflex when bad things happen that I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that God was in that situation and working for my good.

What I found surprised me. Don’t misunderstand, more than ever before, I know God IS with me in every circumstance and he IS working for my well-being. He loves me deeply. What surprised me was that God trusts me as well and his power is unlike anything I could imagine.

A deep discussion of relationship and trusting God is what came out of that search to understand how I could trust the unseen God in an evil world, and I had to share it. Because I know my God is good and he is trustworthy. He is working for your good. He loves you, joyfully engages with you, and he trusts you.

My Review

I found that Our Trustworthy God: How Much God Loves You, Joyfully Engages with You, and Trusts You by Sarah K Howley was a handy and wonderful Bible Study. It is a short one with only six studies to help readers strengthen their own relationship with God. It was easy to fit into my mornings with a cup of coffee before the chaos of daily begins. A good refreshing start of the day.

Our Trustworthy God: How Much God Loves You, Joyfully Engages with You, and Trusts You deserves a five star rating. I highly recommend it for those who are interested in Bible Studies. 

I received a paperback copy of Sarah K Howley's Our Trustworthy God: How Much God Loves You, Joyfully Engages with You, and Trusts You from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.

More from Sarah

Years ago, I was travelling a bit before starting a new teaching job. I found myself thinking that it would be neat to visit a few places of the Bible and soon made plans and set off for Turkey. One of my stops was Ephesus; the thought that I was walking in the same place as Paul and his disciples was pretty amazing. I saw the library (now open-air) and the place where the temple of Diana had been.

Having visited and then reflected on the visit while studying the Bible, I realized that the ruins of the port town of Ephesus were a living monument to the difficult living conditions of the believers in Paul’s time. There was much remaining of the Ephesian pagan world, of a time when Christians were a fledgling group that needed the encouragement that Paul offered.

Still today, looking around me it is easy to think that we are still a fledgling group of Christians that need Paul’s encouragement. Division and favoritism are still prevalent today and we are surrounded by nonbelievers. But Paul offered words of wisdom that are still relevant to us today.

You may not visit Turkey soon, but you can connect with the people of the land through Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. We can walk a mile in their shoes as we study the encouragement of Paul and experience the power of Christ in our own lives.

My Review

I found Sarah K Howley's new Bible Study called Ephesians: Experience God's Power (Seeing the Old Testament in the Epistles) to be a good eight session inspiration.  Each session is only six pages long and include: Questions to answers with plenty of space to write in, commentary, and scripture reading from Ephesians, as well as, other Bible verses to study. I would say it would be a great way to fit each session into one week and easily take the time needed to follow every one.

I am going to give Ephesians: Experience God's Power (Seeing the Old Testament in the Epistles) five plus stars. I highly recommend it for those who are searching for a Bible Study. I would be interested to read more from Sarah K Howley.
