Some events may simply catch us off guard for a moment, but others shatter us completely. At times like these, it's easy to feel disappointed and disillusioned and to wonder about the reality of God's goodness.So what do you do when God's timing seems questionable, his lack of intervention hurtful, and his promises doubtful?Lysa understands this deeply.

Great Book!
Did this study with a group of ladies and we all read this book. We also did the workbook. Loved it! I liked the book so much I purchased it for friends. Lysa did a fabulous job with using major challenges in her life (current and in the past) to grow closer to God. She teaches you how to do the same and grow stronger when life makes changes you may not of expected. Even if you think you haven't had challenges, you will, so be prepared and do yourself a favor, read this book. Honestly it teaches you about healing, growing, life and your relationship with God and others. Super book!

AMAZING
Amazing book! Lysa delivers the message so well and you will gain so much knowledge from her writings in “It’s Not Suppose To Be This Way”. It was hard to put the book down. It’s so good that you will want to start over reading as soon as you finish the book.
