“Should We Fire God? challenges us to think deeper about some of the frustrations and struggles that many of us face when trying to understand an incomprehensible God. We all experience emotions, but many times we don’t stop to explore the true implications underlying those emotions. Rather than a preacher from the pulpit style, Jim openly shares his own personal battles with the reader. In doing so, he helps to bring to light a truth and wisdom that can’t always easily be felt or experienced. Whether you are personally in the midst of turmoil with God, know someone who is, or are looking for some direction in dealing with some tough questions, this book challenges you not to accept the faith of following Christ blindly. There are ups and downs in any relationship, including one with God, yet there are also more answers than some of us might think. Should We Fire God? doesn’t aim to deny the difficulty of devoting your life to something no one can fully understand, but it does offer some real perspectives on how to pursue it.” — Jeff Borsos — church planter with H2O at Ohio State University
“One of the things I loved most about “Should We Fire God†is that from the beginning Jim doesn’t pretend that he has all the answers but consistently points us to the one who does..Jesus. Jim’s personal stories show him to be real (and really funny!) and they show us how God is there in the midst of all that we do, good and bad. Jim opens the door that many are afraid to open in allowing ourselves to ask “God, where are you?†– often when we ask it’s then we find out that He is there, wherever we are.   The book is encouraging in reminding us that as much as we love those around us and are saddened by the bad things that happens, God loves them more and is saddened too. We can take comfort in knowing that God is always with us and thankfully has a bigger plan.”   Jo Rapps — Personal Assistant to Mike Breen of 3DM
