The world is an unpredictable place. We are challenged by how to react to all the turmoil, tragedy, and uncertainty. What is the Godly response? The author posits that to have a Godly response, we must know God. To know God, one must go beyond cursory Bible reading or sporadic church attendance. One must make an intentional effort to get to know God. This book seeks to explain the difference between religion as a structure versus having a relationship with God. It offers several areas to explore in building a relationship with God. During these times, religion that does not impact our everyday lives will not be effective. We need to have a relationship with God. The author, K. A. Sellers, graduated from Palmer Theological Seminary in 2015. She strives to combine her seminary learnings with people''s everyday experience. Even though the Bible was written centuries ago, God''s principles are still useful for us today.

All of us have faced, are facing, or will face, difficulties in life.  The author of Don''t Waste the Pain: God Can Use difficult Times to Grow Your Faith, tells of an extremely difficult period in her life. She had heard that God was and is a presence in the life of a Christian; however, it was difficult to see how these experiences came from a loving God. To investigate this claim, the author looked to see what the Bible had to say. Using the book of Job as a framework, the author parallels her life to Job''s life. The author then gives us some of the lessons which she learned throughout the process. The author hopes that someone will read this book and gain a measure of encouragement in difficult times.  Ultimately, difficult times come to everyone; the least we can hope to do is to not waste the pain of those times. We can learn more about God and about ourselves.
