The God Who Wasn't There: looking for a Savior in the middle of pain

By Josh Pease

It's a question nearly every human has thought at least once: "God, where were you?" It's a cry that comes from pain, anger, sadness, hurt, and loneliness. It's the cry of a people who feel abandoned by a God they may or may not even think is real.In "The God Who Wasn't There" pastor and author Josh Pease looks at the Biblical account of the death of Lazarus and unpacks how that story is actually our story. It contains: - A God who deliberately waits until it's too late to save His friend. - People who can't understand Jesus's actions and want to know "where were you?" - Spectators outside the faith looking on and wondering "what kind of 'Messiah' is this?" This is a book about answering that exact question: who is this God who disappears when we need Him most? It's not a philosophical treatise or outline of theological bullet points: it's a book about a lost relationship. It's an attempt to find a God who - despite evidence to the contrary - actually IS loving and powerful.If you have left the faith, are losing your faith, or don't know how to explain your faith in the face of a broken world ... this is a book written for you.
