Jesus reveals a God who is more on your side than you ever dared to dream. In this study on the gospel of John, you’ll discover the Creator who enters your side of creation, the Savior who fights for you on the cross, and the Redeemer who works through you with meaning and purpose. You’ll discover

• how God is closer than you think—guiding, guarding, and loving you
• how the Old Testament brings John’s gospel to life in fresh ways
• simple, practical ways to experience God’s love every day

You don’t have to win God’s love. God has come to win yours. Even in your darkest moments, he pursues you to shape you and hold you close. Come encounter the hope-filled radiant love of the God who is always on your side.©2025 Joshua Ryan Butler (P)2025 Random House Audio

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This isn’t a pastor’s advice on getting through it with flowery and clean platitudes. It’s a broken vessel crying out in the wilderness. God Is on Your Side pulls readers into the pages of John, creating a new lived experience of what the biblical text really means.”—Brenna Blain, theologian and author of Can I Say That?

“In our age of overwhelming disillusionment and discouragement, this audiobook reminded me why the Gospel of Jesus Christ is still good news. The love of Christ is the theme of the gospel of the beloved disciple. Let it be the song of your heart. This is what it means to have life to the full.”—Nijay K. Gupta, professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary and author of Strange Religion

Recommend

The author was able to paint the picture with hat even when the messiness of life weighs one down, God remains faithful and present. God is always and forever true to Himself, His Word.

One of the story that stood out to me was when an individual friends begged and pleaded for a presidential pardon which was granted. However, the man refused the pardon, therefore accepting the penalty of the judgment. One might ask, why would one refused a pardon?

Ask another way, why do people rejects God’s pardon for salvation through Christ?

This book is sound and I recommend reading it.

Encouraging!

Josh Butler takes the reader on a journey with Jesus stories in the Gospel of John. His connections between the context, text and real life are spot-on. Thank you for a great book!

An amazing book.

Amazing! Joshua Butler is an incredible storyteller and theologian taking the reader through the New and Old Testament showing how the law and grace work together to show believers that God is not only on your side, but longs for you to be on his side too.
