When the Lights Go Out: Surprising Growth When God Is Hidden

By Graham Cooke

Book Overview

Do you feel sometimes as though God is wonderfully present-blessing, encouraging, loving you? But then you experience times when He seems remote and silent? Be encouraged, says Graham Cooke, because this is God's way of helping you learn to walk with Him. In both of these seasons, God is teaching you the discipline of moving beyond your emotions and being assured of His love and commitment. Is God's presence manifest? Then rejoice in the blessings He gives. Is He hidden from view? Then know He is working to build your faith-even in the shadows of darkness. Book jacket.

In The Secret Place

This book comforts the heart by clarifying that during the silent times a child of God is not forgotten but maturing in Christ by growing his faith. Continual manifestation of God is not a continuous factor that should indicate the personal and spiritual relationship between a believer and the Father. I've learned that God is truly working in my life and that in the silent times, I am being groomed for something greater in Christ which is defined by the faith and trust in God that will sustain me. This is indeed one of the best books I have read in years.
