Book Review of Chasing God by Angie Smith




Chasing God
by Angie Smith
ISBN 978-1-4336-7661-1
B&H Publishing Group
Reviewed by Clint Walker

Angie Smith is a relatively new and compelling writer. This book is really, like many of her other books, all about discovering that God's grace and love is bigger and more amazing than we ever can anticipate, and that she expects.

This book is really about how she spends a lot of time chasing after God, aspiring to greater spiritual heights, and pushing to draw close to God, and then coming to realize that God is already close her. Instead of chasing after God, she needs to slow down and savor God's presence and receive his grace that was readily available to her all alone.

Smith is thoughtful, deep and vulnerable. Her journey will touch many.
