Second Guessing God Endorsements

"C.S. Lewis once said that a writer shouldn't aim at being original but being honest; because each individual's unique honesty will bring creativity as well. Brian Jones is both. He expresses the heart's disappointment and longing with a directness that somehow always ends up leading us toward God."

John Ortberg, author of
If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat


"When I've gone through times of doubt and disillusionment, the overwhelming emotion I felt was fear: What if this never gets better? How long can I hold on? Brian Jones is the person you need to hear from at those times. "Second Guessing God" combines honesty with hope. It won't give you a quick fix or easy answers, but it will help you hang on until faith and hope return. And when they do, you'll be stronger and wiser for what you've learned from this wise and encouraging book."
Brian McLaren, author of A New Kind of Christian


"I can't predict the future, but of this I am confident: Second Guessing God will not be the last book by Brian Jones. From the first paragraph I was captured by his open and engaging style. He dares to raise the questions and faith-doubts many of us have carried silently. You will appreciate his honesty and be strengthened by his counsel."
Gene Appel, Lead Pastor
Willow Creek Community Church South Barrington Campus


"Brian Jones writes in a way that allows us accompany him on his deep and meaningful journey toward trusting God. He takes our hand to lead us and sometimes while we're walking and thinking he slips away and we find ourselves holding the hand of God."
Nicole Johnson, Women of Faith conference speaker and author of Fresh Brewed Life


"Brian Jones sensitively addresses the existential doubts I have heard raised in both universities and churches: Where is God in my pain, and can He really be trusted? As a seasoned traveler through this difficult terrain and now pastor to other travelers, Brian speaks with transparency and passion about such questions and of God's faithfulness and presence in the midst of them."
Ravi Zacharias, author of Recapture the Wonder
