PamelaJo | Jun 21, 2015 |   "I had no sense of the perils that awaited me. Maybe I had no sense at all," writes Susan Goffard in her book, Chased by God, Stalked by Death. Indeed, Susan, a true recounteur, shares the many dangers she walks headlong into, some out of pure naivetê, others unavoidable because of the remote and exotic locations in which she and her French foreign ministry husband, Luc, live. From Laos, Arab countries, Ethiopia,Guatemala, Mexico, and even Wisconsin, near-death experiences haunt Susan or her immediate family members. Yet it takes forty years before Susan hears God's voice and realizes He is calling her through all this. Thankfully, call her God does, and Susan clearly and unashamedly shares how she met Christ as her Lord and Savior. I loved that the transformation was so real in her life, it caused those around her to desire what she had found. What a challenge to me regarding living out my faith!! If you enjoy exotic locales, slices of local life in said places, and the sense of impending peril, this is a great book. It was wonderful to see how God protected Susan when she wasn't yet aware of Him. I received this book from bookfun.org in exchange for an honest review.

Chased By God...And Stalked By Death is at first glance an exciting tale of harrowing travel adventures around the world. Drama, danger and comic relief engulf the main character(s) as they adapt to exotic languages cultures and customs across 32 countries.Throughout the journey of 42 years, one life was intersected over and over again with 40+ near-death experiences. "Hard to believe", you say. "No one could survive that many close calls!" If someone had told this author in childhood that there would be that many life- threatening events ahead of her, she wouldn't have believed it either. Chased By God is the amazing true account of a compassionate God who goes to extraordinary lengths to turn one runaway soul to Himself. It hints at an ongoing spiritual battle as death and God contend for the life of this clueless soul. God's great chase after His creation spans every culture and continent, no matter how long it takes. Chased By God is the autobiographical narrative of one woman's extraordinary journey to faith, through dangers, diseases and disasters. This book broaches an often "taboo" topic through short, action-packed episodes that demonstrate God's protection and pursuit of us all. It details a lifetime of miraculous physical rescues and focuses on the spiritual journey to salvation. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Susan Goffard is a woman who has lived quite an interesting and exciting life. Much of the excitement was dangerous and life threatening. This is her true story and reflects God's protection through the years, even though Susan did not realize how often God attempted to rescue her. She did not recognize the voice of God in her life until she was in her forties.
While this book is full of many adventures and near-death experiences, it is really a story of salvation, of being lost and finally being found. Susan ultimately realized, after many years, that God was watching over her throughout her life. He continued to call to her as she continued to run from Him. Yet, God never abandoned Susan. He saved her in every way.
This book is fast paced with a very deep message. It is full of grace and hope. Susan discovered that it is never too late to seek God. He protects each of us and is always there. Instead of running from Him, we need only to run toward Him, pray to Him, and allow him to direct our path. This is an excellent book which I highly recommend!
