Book Cover & Preview Text
At the Passover Seder, the head of the household breaks the middle matzah in two. The larger part is hidden for the children to find. When the children find it, it is theirs to eat.
God has similar hidden treasures for his children to seek out and enjoy, but far too often, believers content themselves with lives of spiritual drudgery. While they read the Bible, pray, and attend church regularly, they don’t live with the ever-present knowledge of God’s love for them and the abundant life he holds for all who seek him.
A Life on God’s Terms puts readers in touch with the powerful truth that God’s love, while it cannot be earned, already extends to his children. This revelation encourages those who follow him to pursue a path that will allow them to thrive.
This flourishing means learning to live in the present, as children do. Readers will also find the freedom and courage to pursue truth wherever it leads them, including to the discovery of new passions, gifts, and insights. While spiritual growth is not always comfortable, A Life on God’s Terms shows that a relationship with God is always worth it.

About the Book
As a faithful Christian, you attend church, read your Bible, and talk to God in prayer. Yet something is missing. You know the steps and walk them consistently. But your spiritual life lacks vibrancy, and God feels far away.
A Life on God’s Terms has no rules, prescriptions, or admonishments you have not heard before. Instead, this book encourages you to embrace a closer, more authentic relationship with God, one in which you will truly flourish. The beginning of this journey does not lie in earning God’s favor but in recognizing that you already have it. When you accept that you cannot change God’s love for you, you will ask that all-important question, What’s next? A Life on God’s Terms leads you to the joyous answers.
