The Power Of A Whisper: Hearing God, Having The Guts To Respond (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
The Power of a Whisper, by Bill Hybels, affirms a God who is relational, near and wanting to speak to us. In fact, He is speaking, but are we listening? Using many personal stories, Hybels pieces together his story to explain how the whispers of God and His response to them charted a course for his life that he could have never foreseen. God has spoken throughout history and still speaks today to anyone who is willing to listen. Listening to the quiet whispers of God is an extraordinary privilege and certainly the most transforming. This book is well-organized, Scripturally based, helpful and inviting. The God of the Bible speaks. While the earth shakes and wind blows, often God speaks through a whisper, a subtle nudge, or words left to resonate in our hearts. These whispers are the focus of Hybels' work here: how to cultivating a listening heart; how to discern what's from God; what to do when God seems silent. While exploring these themes, Hybels weaves countless stories of God's whispers - many from his personal life and ministry at Willow Creek Community Church, as well as from scripture, friends, church members, and more. Overall, Hybels offers inspiring stories and wise counsel, but certainly not a definite study on the subject. B+
