If you're stuck in a difficult situation and don't know what God's plan is in it all, God Isn't Finished With You Yet will inspire you, through stories of people from the Bible, to not give up!
When life is tough and we seem to have reached a dead end, it’s easy to feel as if God has given up on us. We’re not alone in feeling like this. Catherine Campbell vividly retells the stories of real people from the Bible with difficult and sometimes painful lives, who struggled to see God’s path for them. Abigail was trapped in marriage to a fool. John Mark ran away from his friends. The Samaritan woman faced shame in the society of her day. Judah sinned against Tamar and Joseph. Simeon and Anna had the challenges of old age. But God hadn’t finished with any of them. With Life Lessons reflections to encourage us to respond biblically to our own life circumstances, and questions for personal reflection or group discussion, Catherine Campbell helps us see what the Bible tells us – God isn’t finished with you yet!
'Catherine opens up the world of the Bible in glorious shades and images as she brings alive the stories of six people. With grace and truth, she shows how God didn’t give up on them – and how he doesn’t give up on us. I especially appreciate how she reaches our hearts through the narrative and our minds with her teaching. Read, ponder, and savour this delightful, trustworthy, and powerful book. You won’t regret it.' -- Amy Boucher Pye, author of 7 Ways to Pray
'Catherine is an extraordinary woman. She is that women who is acquainted with grief and loss, but her life is much richer than the stories we know about her. Throughout the beautiful retelling of biblical narrative in this book, she shows us that this is also the case for characters like Abigail, John Mark and Judah. Words like abuse, failure, guilt, and ageing are turned around in our Creator’s hand. Catherine and these characters teach us about not giving up and trusting God for the rest of our stories.' -- Debbie Duncan, author of Gifted
'This book is as informative and inspiring as we have come to expect from Catherine Campbell. Giving us a fresh insight into a selection of Biblical characters, she draws us into a new understanding of the God who spans history and his impact on our lives. This is a book for reading and reflecting. You will want to go back and reread it anytime you find yourself struggling and in need of encouragement. The practical questions for further study are ideal for individual or group study.' -- Jean Gibson, author of Journey of Hope
