Publisher's summary

With the same depth, sensitivity, and emotion that has made his novels beloved to millions, Charles Martin helps us engage the fundamental principles of our faith in new and inspiring ways.

Years ago, Martin cracked open his Bible and began wrestling with a few fundamental questions. He asked, “What if every single word of Scripture is absolutely true and I can trust it? How do I respond? Something in me should change, but what? How?” This audiobook is the result of that exploration.

Writing as our guide, he uses a storyteller’s imagination to illuminate key moments from the Scriptures, primarily from the life and ministry of Jesus. In addition, Martin shares key moments from his own journey as a disciple - and bond-servant - of Christ and a mentor to others. The result is a striking exploration of truth that helps us not just think differently but live differently. Today.

Includes a song written by Charles Martin’s son, only available in the audiobook edition. Appendices that include topical verses from Scripture are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The best of Charles Martin

I chose this book because Charles Martin is my all time favorite author. His books are always thoughtful, deep and soul searching. I also am a person of faith and it hasn’t always been easy. I think that is one thing Charles Martin wants us to know. A faith that is real will cause you to put every area of your life under the microscope of truth. Whether you are new to the faith or you’ve been on a life long journey of faith, this book will challenge you to let the Spirit of God do His good work in you. Through your circumstances, diagnosis’, relationships, temptations and pain, God wants to use it all to reveal a new aspect of Himself to you. He wants to use the good stuff too, but somehow we (I) just do not search for Him as much when things are going good. Charles Martin leads us on a journey of evaluating ourselves in the light of the Word by the power of the Spirit. If you allow it, the journey through this book will change you, for God’s glory and your good.

Questions for my soul

This was a lark to purchase - I knew nothing about Charles Martin (Sorry).
- but saw this in a book store and the title drew me. I am a follower of Christ yet find it difficult to share with my skeptical family and newly believing husband. Asking my husband to read one of my book suggestions as our ‘Personal Book Club’ was possibly going to end up another unattempted effort to engage and deepen his & our journey with Christ. But this time - after a quick sample listen - he was off and running... he finished and felt a tug and a pull towards Jesus more so than he had ever felt before. I felt it too. Thank you for helping us both to shed sone more layers of scales off our heart eyes💗

So good

I’ve listened and will listen again. Plus I bought the book for myself to go more In depth and a copy to pass on to a friend. “If it’s true” solidifies the Bible even more for me and challenges who I am in Christ and my responsibility as a Jesus follower. I loved hearing Charles Martin’s heart and want everyone I know to hear it and read it.

Could not put this book down

Food for the soul❤️. If you want a blessing, READ THIS BOOK. I love this author. As a matter of fact, I have read most of his books. Some are fiction (fantastic fiction), but this is the 1st non-fiction I have read. I have given his books as gifts to friends and family. Highly recommend.

Beautiful & Inspiring

The way Charles Martin brings some of the Bible stories to life is beautiful and overwhelming at times. His conversations with God reminded me of times when I have had those similar conversations with God. A must read for anyone, Christian or not, who is earnestly seeking truth.
