No Idea: Entrusting Your Journey to a God Who Knows
Greg Garrett
David C. Cook, 2009, 222 pp, $12.99
For the most part, the modern adventure can be quite safe—just consult the divine guidance of MapQuest, GoogleEarth or handy-dandy dashboard GPS. Spiritually speaking, how does a Christian know that one is going the right way? What if we get lost?
Greg Garrett’s authenticity gives his thoughts a simple, humorous twist as he admits struggles with true confession and prayer, “My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going…” Directed to the confused, the counselors and the followers in between, this book holds beauty in its claim that Garrett does not have every answer; but he does have a variety of knowledge companied by a deep, profound faith.
His experiences go from peace and transformation in the desert of New Mexico, to the personal, hard-learned lessons of divorce; from the question, “Why are there saints?” to an honest conclusion that one may be found in his own grandfather.
