This book explores believers' perspectives on divine communication, focusing on whether Christians feel God speaks to them personally.
In Can You Hear God Now?, the author delves into the intriguing question of whether modern believers perceive God's voice in their lives. This exploration is particularly focused on Christians and their belief in personal communication with the divine. Through extensive research, Susan Roberts aims to uncover the diverse perspectives on how individuals experience God's presence and guidance in their everyday lives.
Roberts conducted a comprehensive survey that reached hundreds of participants from varied backgrounds, including different religious affiliations, genders, and ages across twenty-four states and three countries. The findings reveal significant trends in contemporary beliefs about divine communication, highlighting the importance of listening as much as praying. Many respondents share compelling personal anecdotes about their interactions with God, illustrating the myriad ways in which the divine can manifest in our lives.
Can You Hear God Now? not only presents these personal stories but also weaves in Biblical principles to inspire readers to cultivate their own meaningful dialogue with God. This book serves as a guide for those seeking to enhance their spiritual lives, encouraging a deeper connection through two-way communication. With practical insights and relatable experiences, it aims to help readers recognize and respond to God's voice in their daily journeys.
The world is full of noise, but Susan Roberts’s prayerful Can You Hear God Now? cuts through it all to find some needed holy clarity.Learning how to listen to the still small voice of God takes a helpful and faithful guide, Roberts knows. Her book draws from a survey that asked participants to describe how they heard God’s voice. From the responses she draws anecdotes, combining them to showcase themes and ideas about discerning holiness amid the chaos.First focusing on preparing oneself for hearing from God, the book explores topics like finding the right relationship with God, how to spend time with the Bible, and being spiritually ready to connect to the divine. Next the text considers prayer, including handling an answer of “no” and what to do when God’s voice is unclear. Everything works toward a specific consideration of discernment, including tips about what to listen for, how to listen actively, and how to connect to the Holy Spirit as a guide.The book’s theories are tied to poignant personal stories that highlight what this looks like in practice, in the lives of everyday Christians who seek God’s help. They are people wondering about what house to buy, how to find a lost diamond, or how to listen when God doesn’t respond as expected. Reflection questions follow each chapter with reminders that human beings need to “stop and refresh.”Practical and engaging, Can You Hear God Now? knows that, while God is infallible, our discernment is not. It imparts confidence that hearing God’s voice is a result of preparedness and openness to hearing what God has to say.
