當上帝說“不”時 │When God Says No (Traditional Chinese Discovery Series Booklet)

儘管夢想破滅，依然信靠上帝

夢想的破滅常讓人感到迷茫和痛苦。心中湯求的事物無法得到，身心備受煎熬，承受這樣的痛苦有什麼意義呢？作者翟薛頓親身走過夢想破滅的曠野，他明白這樣的經歷深具意養。霍薛頓將猶太人在曠野的經歷比照我們的處境，當我們徬徨失措，茫然不知地求問上帝原因時，就如同身處於無盡的曠野一般。上帝使用曠野的經歷教導我們認識自己，也向我們彰顯祂自己。所以，即使上帝向你說「不」，你依然可以相信，在人生最晦暗的時刻，祂仍與你同行，也為你的未來帶來盼望。

霍薛頓 (Sheridan Voysey) 擁有神學及大眾傳播的學位，目前在英國牛津定居。 他是一位作家、講員及廣播節目主持人。他著書頗豐，也經常在聚會中擔任講員，並曾在澳洲主持一個探討生命、信仰及文化的談話性節目。

Trusting God When Your Dreams Have Died

"Broken dreams" sounds so hollow.  There's something you desperately want but can't have.  Is there purpose in your pain? Sheridan Voysey—a man who walked through the wilderness—says "yes." He makes a comparison of the Jews' biblical wilderness journey to the wilderness we find ourselves in when we are empty and desperately asking God, "Why?"  God uses these times to teach us about ourselves and reveal Himself to us.  So even when God says "no," you can trust that He will walk with you during your darkest moments and offer His hope for your future. 

Sheridan Voysey is a writer, speaker, and broadcaster based in Oxford, England.  Sheridan has authored several books and was the hose of a live talk show in Australia exploring life, faith, and culture.  Sheridan speaks regularly at conferences and holds degrees in theology and communication.
