About this Item

Neuware - Not Even God explains why not even God can have it all. It sounds scary, but it is no cause to panic because we also find out what is missing-partnership with God. Another theology book might sound scary, too, but Not Even God is a page-turner, combining compelling personal narratives with scripture commentary. Fourteen brief chapters tell about the trial of one or two of the friends author Bryan Rocine has made in serving as a pastor in one of the largest churches in Central New York for over twenty years. The twenty-one year old son of one friend dies in a car accident, another friend rears her children without her husband because he is murdered, another flees from Muslim extremists, one overcomes a wrecked marriage, and others struggle against cancer, debilitating disease, and drug abuse. In a stunning departure from common Christian theology, Not Even God denies any of these trials are God's will. Nevertheless, the life stories of these humble friends become enlightening object lessons on how to collaborate with God in 'writing the story of our lives.'.
