All the Places to Go . . . How Will You Know?: God Has Placed Before You an Open Door: What Will You Do? - Softcover

Ortberg ("The Me I Want To Be"; "Soul Keeping"), a senior pastor at Menlo Park Presbyterian Church in California, has written a new book that offers hope and guidance to embrace change and the unknown. The titles of his previous works are indicative of his approach: catchy, contemporary, in touch with Lewis Carroll and "Sesame Street" as well as modern counseling modes, yet grounded in narratives from the Old and New Testaments. His principal interest is spiritual formation, which is in some ways an ideal match for Americans today. It is less concerned with dogmatics than with the development of the self. Ortberg is adept in using his pastoral experience and knowledge of scripture to develop his argument, which stresses faith in God's invitations to Christians to move forward, into the unknown. VERDICT A mainstream Christian's approach to trusting God and improving the self; solid for church groups, pastors, and individual Christians.--Library Journal

Very rarely in the Bible does God command someone to “Stay.” He opens a door, and then he invites us to walk through it—into the unknown. And how we choose to respond will ultimately determine the life we will lead and the person we will become. In fact, to fail to embrace the open door is to miss the work God has made for us to do.

In All the Places to Go . . . How Will You Know?, bestselling author John Ortberg opens our eyes to the countless doors God places before us every day, teaches us how to recognize them, and gives us the encouragement to step out in faith and embrace all of the extraordinary opportunities that await.

So go ahead—walk through that door. You just might do something that lasts for eternity.
