This book made me feel so wonderful and loved by the king himself - God! Lucado has a great way of expressing God’s love for all people and he seems to be talking to you individually. Awesome!

“When God Whispers Your Name” is an inspirational book based on Biblical stories presented in modern disguises. Max Lucado tells the modern story and then identifies the Biblical original. He does so in a way which holds the reader’s interest and is never boring.
My daughter is in a challenging, Biblically based Theology course I had gone into this book in the hope of enhancing my familiarity with Bible stories in order to help her. I obtained what I wanted, and more. Lucado tells Bible stories in ways that make them memorable. I approached this book with some trepidation. As a Catholic, I expected this Protestant minister to overwhelm us with quotes and citations. There is some of that, but they never interfere with the story.
This book provides the reader with a road map to a more intense personal relationship with God. As I went through this book I found myself to be both inspired and excited. It can do the same for many Christians and others too.

This is the first book written by Max Lucado that I’ve read. It’s one of his earlier works. His writing style is a little different than those of most other authors whose books I’ve read, but it’s a good kind of different. The book is written in a more conversational tone. It’s kind of refreshing after reading so many books written in a formal, ridged style.
This book discusses how to listen and hear when God whisper’s your name. The book is basically a compilation of several short stories that all lead to a centralized theme. The author tells a story and then explains how it applies to life. This style results in a great book that aides in your walk with Christ.
When God Whispers Your Name has a powerful message. This book is a breath of fresh air in a world filled with smog. It’s definitely worth reading.

When God Whispers Your Name — a great group bible study
My group reads a story out loud and then uses the questions in back to stimulate a discussion. You never have to get behind or miss a study.

Hey, It’s Max Lucado!
What else would you expect from a review for Max Lucado but 5 stars? Amazon also gets 5 stars for having it at such a lower price.

God speaks in unusual ways.
I’m using this book as part of my daily devotations and God has “spoken” to me in several of the chapters.

Listen Carefully, God Loves You
Thank you Max! Especially in the difficult times, we forget how much God loves us. Yes, and our names are engraved on the palms of his hands. Thank you, again, for the reminder.
