Publisher's summary

Translating God serves as an inspirational guide book that puts God's great love back into prophetic ministry as a primary goal full of real life stories that articulate the culture of love behind God's heart for the prophetic.

So much of the prophetic ministry is esoteric and a free-for-all in which people throw down the God card on anything they feel, but this book brings balance without taking away the desire to see the powerful nature of God displayed. On top of that, it's biblically based and is supported by scripture throughout each story, driving home the book's message of activating the ability to hear God's voice for each listener.

Through a thought-provoking prophetic ministry philosophy and Shawn's glorious successes and very real failures, you will be inspired and equipped to:

  • Learn how to hear God for yourself and others
  • Grow through simple focused steps
  • Take great risks
  • Stay accountable
  • Love people well
  • Grow in intimacy with the Lord

As an internationally known prophetic voice who has ministered to thousands - from political leaders to those on the streets - Shawn shares everything he has learned about the prophetic in a way that is totally unique and refreshing. Shawn aims for the higher goal of loving people relationally, not just pursuing the gift or information, and he activates you to do the same.

Start to reshape the world around you with God's love today.

Absolutely AMAZING READ!

First and foremost, this is a must read that levels the playing field for EVERY believer and clearly explains the purpose of prophecy! This book will absolutely transform your life if you are open to being challenged and willing to apply these practical steps! There are so many timeless treasures and valuables hidden in this book that you can constantly reread it and learn even more every time. I don't even consider myself a prophet but since reading this book, I've been applying these principles and have seen God show up in mighty ways speaking through me and through others to me! I would strongly recommend Translating God to every person that I know because it will give them the reassurance that God deeply loves them and wants to speak to and through them for His glory alone!

See how LOVE really is key.

I felt this book gave lots of examples of how we can show God's love to other people and how God loves me.

Surprisingly Balanced

I was very impressed with the message of this book. It encourages the correct heart position behind prophecy. This is one of the healthiest teachings I've interacted with.

Most inspiring!

Inspired me to work toward hearing God's word for others. My only complaint is that the chapter shown on my phone was always different from the chapter the narrator quoted.

prophetic gift

a good intro for anyone who feels they have the prophetic gift. Shawn shares many real life stories that encourages us to keep practicing and move in step with God - not ahead of Him.

Expanding on hearing from God

This book has blessed me tremendously. Reason it helped me to even grow more in the prophetic and hearing from God for myself and others. It is solid Word based advice. It challenges me to grow in my relationship with God, Jesus and Holy Spirit. To step out more and be even more courageous when speaking to people in my everyday life. I would say that it’s a must read for any believer doesn’t matter what level of learning you are. Even building your faith in practicing hearing God’s heart for people.

Putting prophecy in the context of love!

I feel so encouraged by Shane Boltz wisdom and teaching about prophecy. I have begun to step out more with words and I feel like this book helped me get over my inhibitions. I didnt want to be the strange and isolated prophet so I was running from my gifting. Shane helped me see how I can be a prophet in the context of deep relationships. I feel so encouraging after reading this. I am going to read all his other books.

The reader was pretty bad. He was clipped and monotone during most of the narration and I found myself getting bored but realizing it wasn't the book but the reader.

great first steps and examples to get started

I loved examples of success and failure. It's good to see that there is an intense internal battle from the beginning and that it is normal
