God's Big Design: Life as He Intends It to Be

What was God thinking? We live in a complex and intricate world in a vast and awe-inspiring cosmos. It's difficult to look around and not think No one could think all of this up! or Nothing makes sense in this world! or even more troubling, This universe is so big that something as small as I am must be insignificant. Vaughan Roberts believes that these conclusions are tragically inaccurate. We lose sight of our Creator and his great purpose behind our creation when we indulge such feelings of meaninglessness. In God's Big Design he explores the first chapters of the Bible to consider five big questions:

• What is our Creator like?
• Why did God make human beings?
• What's so special about the earth?
• What does God think about sex and marriage?
• Is work a punishment or a gift from God?

Reading God's Big Design will remind you that despite the immensity of God's creation, he has plans for each of us, and we can each find our place and meaning in him.

Vaughan Roberts is rector of St. Ebbe's Church in Oxford, England, and author of God's Big Picture and Life's Big Questions. He is also a popular speaker at Spring Harvest and a founding member of "9:38" which encourages people to consider full-time gospel ministry.
