Publisher's summary

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY Best Seller

The question isn’t whether God speaks. The question is what does He have to say to you? The New York Times best-selling author of The Circle Maker teaches listeners how to listen to God. 

Winner of The Ecpa Christian Book Award for Christian Living

The voice that spoke the cosmos into existence is the same voice that parted the Red Sea and made the sun stand still in the midday sky. One day, this voice will make all things new, but it’s also speaking to you now!

That voice is God’s voice, and what we’ve learned from Scripture is that He often speaks in a whisper. Not to make it difficult to hear Him, but to draw us close. 

Many people have a tough time believing God still speaks. Sure, in ancient times and in mysterious ways, God spoke to His people, but is He still speaking now? 

Mark Batterson certainly believes so. And he wants to introduce you to the seven love languages of God; each of them unique and entirely divine. Some of them you might suspect but others will surprise you. 

By learning to tune in to and decipher each language, you’ll be able to hear His guidance in simple as well as life-altering choices. God is actively speaking through: Scripture, desires, doors, dreams, people, promptings, and pain. Batterson gives you the tools you need to unlock each of these languages. 

God’s whisper can answer your most burning questions, calm your deepest fears, and fulfill your loftiest dreams. 

Discover how simple it is to hear God’s voice in every aspect of your life! 

He’s speaking, make sure you know how to listen!

Disappointing

I listen to a lot of audiobooks, including many Christian books. I listened to the first three chapters of this book before finally calling it quits. The author should have had someone else narrate the book. The constant barrage of scientific facts quickly became tiresome.

Very Good Audio Book

This was one of the best audio books on the Holy Spirit that I've heard. The content was very good and the audio narration was top notch.

God inspired!

Mark Batterson once again wrote an amazing book! Whisper... lean in to Gods voice. Such an encouragement. God truth is evident in this book.

Multiple read

Loved it, so much to absorb I have listened to it twice so far. I am still looking forward to the third.

Incredible insights!

I loved the progession in the book and the plethora of stories to explain every point. what a blessings to the kingdom!

This book didn’t just whisper to me. It spoke loud and clear!

This book is exactly what I needed when I needed it. I stubbled upon it by accident, but I feel that it was what God wanted me to hear & it was how He was speaking to me. My faith is even stronger.

Don’t get

This is more about physics and history. Very little to do with the holy spirit and understanding how God talks to you

I must’ve received a different book than what the other reviewers received

This is awful! I’m not sure of what the other people received but this in no way has led me to an understanding of whisper from God. It is strictly science and that is no connection. Very disappointed!

Powerful!

This book is amazing! It showed me how God can talk in so many ways and how he expresses his love toward us!

Not a critical consideration of the topic

I bought this book because our Sunday School class is beginning to study it. I had hoped it would be a thoughtful, critical review of the topic. It is not. It is filled with illustrations that support what the author believes to be true. The author does not walk through the topic to give a balanced view. If one begins with all of the assumptions that the author begins with then this would be a good book.

Great book

Have now read this a few times and get something new out of it each time. Well worth the credit

Another inspiring book

Another great book from Mark Batterson.
Inspirational content and great audio delivery.
There are loads of great illustrations used in getting the message across and a good balance of technical and inspirational content.
Some chapters are a bit too long in my opinion, but this book is a great listen.

greatness attained

l loved reading this book and would read it again at a much slower pace as there are a lot to assimilate into ones consciousness to grow. And this is what this boomnis doing for me pushing me to strive for a closer relationship with the Holy spirit.

Hear it, read it

There are so many valuable words in this book, valuable sentences, that to read it once or listen to it once is not enough. To hear God is the most important thing in your life and to learn how to is precious, even if you do hear, this could expand your hearing. I have read this book a couple of times and listened to it, it never tires or gets old because there is so
Much I’m it, with the Holy Spirits help you will be enriched in your hearing of Gods voice in whichever ways He wants to speak to you. And that is life to you. There is nothing more precious in this life as a relationship with the God who made you, this book helps that.

Interesting

I found this book interesting but in places unnecessarily complex. The narration by the author is excellent but the often difficult scientific content spoilt it for me. Batterson's book 'The circle maker' was by far a better book as it stuck to the theme of prayer whereas this one often went into too much detail about the ear and sound waves amongst other things which were superfluous.
