Forsaken God?: Remembering the Goodness of God Our Culture Has Forgotten

$ 14.99

by Janet Thompson

Our morally deteriorating culture has forgotten God’s goodness. The survival of the Christian faith depends on creating a culture of God-memories that must start now!

Today’s culture is quickly forgetting the goodness and power of God. The Bible describes the potential destruction through all generations to people who forget God. The dangers are paramount. If we don’t remember what God has already done, we won’t believe what he is capable of doing in the future. Memory builds faith.

Forsaken God? explores biblical examples of forgetting God as God repeatedly pleads for his people to remember his mighty acts and deeds. As you read this captivating book, you will have an opportunity to recall your own memories of God and learn the power of sharing those memories with the next generation. Janet Thompson and other contributors share open and honest stories of forgetting God’s goodness and offer ways that help them to remember that will help you too!

“Forsaken God? is a must-read book! Janet skillfully points the reader to specific ways we can remember the goodness of God. This book poignantly weaves biblical wisdom with the true stories of people who have rediscovered the power of honoring, praising, and celebrating God. The bonus in the last few chapters offers hands-on steps for fostering a generation of people who choose to remember the praiseworthy deeds of our God and will pass that knowledge on to others. This is a book you will refer to again and again.”
Carol Kent, speaker and author of When I Lay My Isaac Down


“This book does a great job of challenging us to share our spiritual journey with our children, grandchildren, and future generations in verbal stories and/or in print. Our stories of how we have experienced God working in and through our lives can have a great impact on future generations of his faithfulness in our lives. We can demonstrate to them that life is hard, not always fair, but God will walk with us if we allow him to hold our hand.”
Lillian Penner, National Prayer coordinator, Christian Grandparenting Network, author of Grandparenting with a Purpose


“Janet Thompson reminds us we are in a love relationship with our creator. He adores us and wants to shower us with proof. It is we who too often pull away. Forsaken God? isn’t a book propagating guilt, it is a how-to manual showing us practical as well as spiritual ways to restore the romance in our relationship with the Almighty.”

“What a refreshing book! Janet gently guides her readers in remembering the goodness of God when our society has largely forgotten him. The promptings for personal reflection at the end of each chapter help you develop healthy heart habits. Thank you, Janet, for giving us what we need—not another selfhelp book, but a well-timed reminder of profound truth: God is good.”
Jocelyn Green, author of Faith Deployed


“When we forget the goodness of God, we lose. When we dwell in the goodness of God, we win. The strength of our lives rises and falls with our accurate view of God. Janet helps us remember God; and in remembering, we become better people who can create a better, more God-honoring future.”

Forsaken God? equips us to intentionally remember the ‘God incidences’ in our lives. Uniquely written, this book inspires us to embrace the profound significance of reflecting on our God-moments and to pass those memories on—and the faith strengthened by them to the next generation. Forsaken God? is a powerful resource for individuals and small groups alike. I highly recommend it.”
