About this audiobook
These days, bad news often outpaces the good. Problems outnumber solutions. You may turn and ask, "Where is God at a time like this?" Friend, he's right here. And he's whispering your name.
You really want to do what is right. But sometimes life turns south. You're anxious, you're busy, you're cautious because you've been hurt before--or maybe you're all of the above. But pastor and New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado is here to share some good news: in the Bible and in the circumstances of your life, God whispers your name lovingly, tenderly, patiently, and persistently.
Somewhere between the pages of this book and the pages of your heart, God is speaking. And he is calling you by name. Maybe that's hard to believe. Maybe you just can't imagine that the One who made it all thinks of you that personally--that he keeps your name on his heart and lips.
In When God Whispers Your Name, Max will help you:
- See yourself in the stories of hardship and redemption in Scripture
- Understand that you are uniquely known by God
- Grasp the great and daring love of the One who calls your name
Each copy of When God Whispers Your Name also includes a discussion guide designed to let you dive deeper into the timeless scripture that underlies each of these lessons of hope, encouragement, and redemption.
Max knows that we all need a reminder every now and then--not a sermon, but a simple reminder that God knows our names. Today, listen carefully. Hear that? God is whispering your name.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I so didn't want this book to end. It brought great comfort and peace to my soul.
Throughout the chapters, it hit me to "ask Jesus to take your place" in all areas of my life -- illness, relationships, etc. -- and I thought, "Well, yeah, He would do that. He would take my place in 'this illness'... He would take that illness upon Himself, and cast it away..." and as the pains continued, I noticed the anger and frustration and negativity I'd been suffering/feeding for umpteen years now had faded. My attitude had changed, thought 'the illness' remained, and I realised what a blessing that would be, and is, to have Jesus' attitude in all things, no matter what my circumstances, and, oh, how I rejoiced, and continue to rejoice, over that!! In all things, I can give thanks as I say, "Jesus, take my place," and I pick up on His response and attitude.
Thank you so much, Max, for helping me find this place and peace.
I am going to have to listen to this a few times, just for the comfort and peace and hope it offers. xx1 person found this helpful
