God Lives In St. Petersburg (2007) - Plot & Excerpts
Petersburg God Lives in St. PetersburgGod, in time, takes everything from everyone. Timothy Silverstone believed that those whose love for God was a vast, borderless frontier were expected to surrender everything to Him, gladly and without question, and that those who did so would live to see everything and more returned to them. After college he had shed America like a husk and journeyed to the far side of the planet, all to spread God’s word. Now he was coming apart. Anyone with love for God knows that when you give up everything for Him, He has no choice but to destroy you. God destroyed Moses; destroyed the heart of Abraham by revealing the deep, lunatic fathom at which his faith ran; took everything from Job, saw it did not destroy him, and then returned it, which did. Timothy reconciled God’s need to destroy with God’s opulent love by deciding that, when He destroyed you, it was done out of the truest love, the deepest, most divine respect. God could not allow perfection; it was simply too close to Him.
