We may, at the end of each day, feel alone. But are we?
The author assures us we are neither cut off nor abandoned, and in God Incidents: True Stories of God Working in the Lives of Catholics, Tom shares the stories of people whose experiences bear witness to the immediate and unquestionably real presence of God in their lives. God Incidents resoundingly assures us that we are not alone.
A book club discussion leads a woman to become a Christian, but she is afraid to tell her husband. A discouraged volunteer decides to continue her volunteer work after hearing the Virgin Mary’s voice giving her direction. A parish church is transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit. These stories, and many more, demonstrate the love of God for His children.
Based on these true stories, God Incidents shows that not everything is a coincidence. This book, and the inspiration, contemplation, and examination that it so naturally fosters, will help you to recognize God’s hand at work today, and all days.
With his background as an architect, Tom has always worked to create beauty and order. He has captured both in these stories. They open his readers’ eyes to the design of a structure built by the greatest architect of them all, God Himself. God’s Church may be visibly embodied in houses of worship, ranging from the simple church of the New Camaldoli Hermitage to the elaborate cathedrals we often envision, but the Church extends beyond brick and mortar, beyond altar and sacristy. God’s Church is found, ultimately, in each of us. And if we believe that to be true, then we have a responsibility to share God with those around us; to be Christ to and for one another.
God Incidents is the beginning of something bigger than Tom, bigger than any one of us. Like so many of God’s works made manifest in the world, they are brought to light in and through our brothers and sisters in Christ here on earth. Through their stories, we come to appreciate God’s capacity to guide, direct, and inspire our thoughts, words, and deeds. In this manner, our works become His works; our words become His words; and our thoughts become His thoughts.
