Through powerful personal experience and biblical teaching, pastor and dynamic speaker shows readers that they are not defined by what happens to them and reveals God's surprising plan to make them stronger.

Mac Powell of Third Day called Clayton King's previous book, Dying to Live, “A must-read.” An evangelist and missionary, Clayton has spoken to millions, including hundreds of thousands in the teen-to-thirties age group in the U.S. Through his firsthand stories in Amazing Encounters with God, believers will see freshly that they can step back and be amazed by God...as Clayton is after poking around in a dark church basement; meeting a drunken millionaire on an airplane; considering a horse sticking his head through barbed wire; having a surprise encounter with the IRS; seeing a baby born dead...and God's credibility in a whole village start to crumble. A great reminder that God speaks through ordinary occurrences, using ordinary things to reveal Himself. “He is still close, maybe as close as the next person you meet, the next song you hear, or the next conversation you have.”

Today, marriages have a 50 percent chance of lasting. Longing to improve those odds, pastor Clayton King, author of the popular Dying to Live, and his wife, Sharie, reveal a revolutionary biblical perspective—at the heart of a godly union is a heart of service. Love is more about understanding one's spouse than being understood. Offering wisdom from God's Word and beneficial advice from their decade of marriage, the Kings present 12 relationship-building questions for couples to ask before they wed. They guide and encourage couples to discuss their: religious backgrounds; past relationships; desires for family and future; financial habits and goals; and vocational aspirations. These questions reveal expectations and concerns and help each person understand the needs and hopes of their loved one. A great resource for churches, counselors, dating couples, and young men and women who dream of a forever marriage.
