Description: Every person experiences God in some way. Unfortunately, we are not always mindful of His divine involvement in our lives. Lyle Pointer has talked with thousands of people about God. He identifies ways in which God makes himself known to ordinary people. Repeatedly he has been struck with the idea that God Is better than most people imagine. Lyle is convinced people would respond positively to a God they understand to be caring, involved and engaging. Better than Imagined tells multiple stories of how people have experienced God. Some stories reflect misunderstandings held by individuals in our time. Some of these same persons gladly put a new face on God and embraced Him in a loving relationship. They discovered Jesus to be an ally to be trusted, rather than an enemy to be feared. Join them in an eternal journey of exploration. The author welcomes your responses.
