Resumen del Editor

Includes audiobook-exclusive commentary from the author as she narrates!

Where is God when life is filled with so much suffering? How can I be sure of God's presence and affection, even in my pain? Can you believe in God and still wrestle with questions and doubt? These are the questions honestly explored in Relentless.

Whether in struggle, illness, death, or failure, the presence of pain causes us to question the presence of God. We pray and watch the sky, crossing our spiritual fingers for hardcore proof of God's nearness. And in the silence, we sense something more sinister: perceived abandonment.

But what if we could collect evidence that God hasn't left us? What if we could be absolutely certain of God's presence and affection, strengthening our faith against any assault?

Woven throughout Scripture sits a single, extraordinary theme: God is with us. Ours is a God who speaks through burning bushes and leads through pillars of fire, who responds to a broken world by giving himself.

Like the Old Testament story of Joshua's altar of 12 stones, Relentless delivers 12 key biblical stories that demonstrate God's unfailing presence. Each chapter offers an invitation to identify a "stone" in your own life as tangible evidence of God's nearness. With the last word, you will have discovered 12 markers of your own, an altar of memory to carry you through questions and losses, even ones yet to come.

For the truth-seekers, those drowning in impossible questions, and those who find themselves swallowed up by the dark, Relentless is an invitation to search for divine presence in our everyday stories. With Michele Cushatt's engaging narrative style, this transformational journey reassures us that God, indeed, is with us.

Finding God and His comfort in the midst of pain.

I "accidentally" (by the grace of God!) stumbled across Michele Cushatt, and I've discovered the heart of love from our Heavenly Father flows through her pen straight to my own heart as I read her words. I think the reason why her words resonate so much with me is because she gives the reader permission to be human and broken while still reaching for hope at the same time. She states it well in the beginning of the book because she writes to readers who are "drowning in impossible questions that threaten to take down your faith." She writes to the "truth seeker who simply wants to know whether the God she's heard about isn't an illusion. And Michele writes to the one "who fears that your pain and losses are proof that God is disappointed in you, angry with you, and has left you." I read Michele's words in short bursts as I try to soak in all of the understanding, compassion, and hope she offers in the quest to show us the truth that GOD NEVER LEAVES! I'm learning that His love is truly relentless

Wrecked me…I’m a God way

I appreciate the authenticity with which the author writes. The last few chapters really wrecked me.

Captivating

I love how Michele breaks down the covenant between God and Abram and how it is applicable to you and I today. The lengths that He has gone to in order to have an intimate relationship with us. If you’re broken and seeking and feeling like God is nowhere to be found, this is the book to read! Thank you Michele for sharing your journey, your pain and victory, in your pursuit to know Him more

Miracles in the Trauma

Raw. Truth. Beautifully transcribed. Evidence of the miracles of God in our journey on planet earth. Michele's honesty and gifted ability to weave her story into the fabric of your soul will have you looking for God's presence with each altar stone you erect. And praying...praying for her and praying for you.

Always best when the author also narrates

Such an excellent book to reveal how to push onward even when the enemy is trying to pull us down. Thank you Michele for being so vulnerable, open and honest with your journey so we don't feel alone when we are in the same trials.
This is one of those books that I will listen to over and over again because there is so many layers and so much we can glean from walk.

Found great encouragement here

I was drawn into Michelle’s story and resonated in multiple ways…what was deeply encouraging was the emphasis on God’s presence & relentless love in the midst of struggle, questions, pain, confusion, etc…God does not forsake us and the stories we live and are intertwined with are an opportunity to believe and embrace His great love. It is often the hardest parts of our journey where intimacy with Jesus grows. Michelle’s story is such a story and I highly recommend listening to the wisdom God has knit into her life. So encouraging!

Beautiful

Beautiful woman. Beautiful faith. Beautiful ministry. Loved this book and recommend everyone to read it.

Powerful

Michele's choice to read her own story of God's presence in her life added weight and power to each word. Thank you, Michele! ❤ I recommended this book to a friend for us to read and discuss together, so I'll be reading it again with her!

Love story

I really love Michelle story and most of all her faith. Anytime we are going through it doesn’t feel good and most people do not push through. They give up and give in. Whatever that looks like it normally isn’t good. But Michelle faith is what kept me in the midst of my storm. Different story! Trusting God in the middle of a blizzard storm doesn’t always feel good. Actually it doesn’t feel good at all but knowing I have a Father I can lean on and depend on and He never lets me down is truly MY story. Thank you Michelle for being so transparent.
