“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
