Revisit Your Past to Enrich Your Future

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

We all encounter God in unanticipated ways-sometimes we simply don't recognize Him... God's influence and guidance are constantly manifesting themselves. God Revealedinvites readers not only to watch vigilantly for messages from God in their daily lives-but also to reconsider experiences from their past, realizing that those overlooked encounters often carry messages that can, with recognition, strengthen their faith and enrich their future. From an author who earned an advanced degree from Yale Divinity School after retiring as the president of a Fortune 100 corporation, this unique book is "a memoir with practical and often powerful inspirational advice" ( Kirkus Reviews).
