Reviews

"I pulled this book off of my husband's library shelf one day in a desperate search for something to renew and restore my soul. I was in a bone-dry spiritual wasteland, and all of my attempts to feel better were useless. I devoured Gary's words and found myself intimately connected with fellow brothers and sisters through the ages who struggled with loneliness, emptiness, and doubt-but whose thirsty souls were satisfied in communion with God and with each other. This has become my go-to book for spiritual encouragement."
-Kay Warren

"Thirsting for God is without question one of the finest books on the Christian journey I have read. Once again Gary Thomas provides believers with penetrating insights for a deeper life. Definitely a book to savor, mark up, and return to again and again."
-Dr. Ed Young, Senior Pastor, Second Baptist Church, Houston, Texas

"For anyone who doesn't just want to know about God, but actually know God, Gary has written a wonderful guide. What a helpful companion for the journey!"
-John Ortberg, author of The Life You've Always Wanted
