Before The Beginning: God Designed

Written from a designer's perspective, this energetic, refreshing and fun book offers thought provoking insight into the heart of God. "Before The Beginning...God Designed" helps to lead the reader from head knowledge to heart knowledge by exploring the creative genius of God. When we begin to truly grasp the bigness of God, our perspective changes and our faith grows. We can then say along with Job, "I have heard, but now I see." The heart of it: We can create great works that capture man's attention and cause wonder and appreciation. We call these men and women "Masters," and their creations-masterpieces. However, these masterpieces do not compare with God's masterpieces. He is Life's Master Designer. One of God's masterpieces is within each of us; it is our hearts. He authored, designed and engineered our hearts. Hearts that are capable of passion, sadness, joy, anger and, above all else, love. Our heart is a barometer to our souls. Unfortunately, tumultuous and perplexing times can skew our perspective and affect the condition of our hearts. The problem is, our senses can be so deadened that we can't recognize that there is a heart/soul issue that needs a loving touch from Heaven. Whether young or old, we can begin to devalue the miracle of who we were meant to be. "Before the Beginning...God Designed" addresses the emotional, physical and spiritual fallout of a lost perspective, and offers the healing and enduring hope of God's perspective through His Word, His Son, and Creation. Our hearts are God's masterpieces. They are so important to Him that He tells us to, "above all else, guard your hearts." When we guard our hearts, knowing and owning His Word, we can more easily grasp our Creator's heart and experience His bigness personally. A Spirit filled heart connects us to God. If that connection renews us, we become more like Christ. We slowly begin to understand the incredible love and passion that God has for us. Who else would be better to address heart issues than the Artist, Author, Designer and Finisher of our hearts?
