Trusting God: Even When Life Hurts by Jerry Bridges
2.0
I just could not get into this book. Perhaps I am not the target audience, having wrestled through the concepts of trusting God already, but it fell flat.
In fact, when I finished I thought "I'm glad that was over". It was long, repetitive, and not as applicable as I wanted it to be.
If this is the first book of Jerry Bridge's that you've read, I'd encourage you to choose another.

Both I recommend wholeheartedly. This one I do not.
