You know, that piling-on effect that, after all, is usually the real source of most of the stress in our lives. And what if all those perpetual pressures only culminate in one horrifying, life-threatening tragedy that brings you and your family to your knees? That's the kind of thing that often leads to the desperate moment when a person cries out in anger, "God, are you still there?" Or more importantly, it begs the question "Does God--if there is a God--even know that you are still here?" That's the story of David Tabor's life, one that had so much potential but which was rocked by so many compounding stressful frustrations. When a family tragedy brings him to his knees, he snaps. Everything that he hoped he knew about God and the purpose of life and "the great unknown" is suddenly called into question--with an amazing answer waiting for him where he least expected to find it. This captivating story encompasses all the things that make all of us vulnerable, uneasy about the future, and maybe even a little scared to know the answer to the title question. But there is comfort and revelation in the simple and poignant wisdom of a seasoned old pastor and miraculous truth in the quiet and life-changing discovery of the answer to the question "God, are you still there?" Tim Parish, Senior Pastor New Life Church, Louisville, KY A page-turner that will capture the attention of the seeker and the mature-in-faith alike. Thoughtful and enlightening, suspenseful and entertaining to the end. I couldn't put it down! Dr. Justin Velez-Hagan, Ph. D. Economist and Economic Advisor Washington, D.C.
