    About this ebook

    The Bible tells us again and again that we are children of God, but for many, the idea of “God the Father” is confusing at best and painful at worst.

    Not Forsaken introduces readers to a God who desperately wants to know them and be the healing, steadfast presence in their life they may be missing.

    What makes us feel forsaken by God? Is it because we feel broken and unworthy of God’s love? Maybe we’ve suffered deep wounds from those who were supposed to love us unconditionally. Bestselling author and pastor Louie Giglio shines a light on how flawed relationships of our past can ultimately affect how we see God - and ourselves.
    What do you think of when you think about God? What do you think God thinks about you?

    The answers to these questions inform everything about who you are and who you are becoming. It is vital we understand this; because if we have a flawed view of God, we’ll have a flawed view of our own life story.

    To live fully and embrace all that God has for us, we must understand who He is, free from the baggage we have accumulated over a lifetime of broken relationships with broken people.

    You are what God says you are. Beautiful. Valuable. Whole.

    Order Not Forsaken right now, and begin your journey toward understanding what it means to find your identity in Christ and a relationship with a Father in heaven who loves you.

    “In Not Forsaken, my friend, Pastor Louie Giglio brilliantly and beautifully helps us form a freeing, scriptural image of God. Don’t put this important and timely resource down.”

      This book really gave me a new perspective on who God is and what His heart is like. Louie is really good at being bold and honest but also sensitive to some people’s difficult reality. Would recommend 100% to anyone and everyone
    • 3/5
      Not a bad book,it has many of the key points I've read in other books on the same topic. Unfortunately it comes undone with where he upholds the idea that Jesus was really forsaken on the cross. I'd suggest the author and anyone else reading this to take a real close look at Psalm 22. All the way to the end.
