In Who Wouldn’t Serve A God Like This?, Pamela Hope compiles unique stories about how the Lord has transformed lives. Constantly, Dr. Kreslyn desired to find her sisters but had insufficient information about them. In a twist of events, she was invited to address a school. Somehow, it is that place she encountered one of her sisters, Stella Leon. It was a miracle for Kreslyn. Another tale details the woes of Deidre Calcoate, who found out at a later date she was adopted. But she can’t have children of her own. Could it be a genetic trait from her biological parents?

In another instance, a fatal accident left Leslie with the choice of switching off her son’s ventilator. And yet, through God’s grace, her son conquered it all. He can walk, eat, talk, etc. This book shares stories of hope and second chances. Above all, faith was the theme I treasured the most. Men and women have gone through hell but have still picked themselves up and continued with the journey.

As I read through the stories, I encountered one thing I disliked. Some tales left me hanging and wondering what happened next or how the narrator came out of the horrendous mess. For instance, one story is recounted by Angela, an alcoholic, a sex worker, and later a private escort. In addition, at fourteen, she experienced an unfortunate rape incident. While I appreciate that she pulled her life together, at least Angela should have dispensed more information, even if briefly.

Some stories were painful to imagine. A man is on vacation with his wife when their boat catches fire. The couple endured fatal burns and was rushed to the nearest treatment facility. Unfortunately, one did not make it, while the other underwent an amputation. Such stories left my eyes teary.

I enjoyed how the narrators boldly shared their encounters. Some ordeals were detailed and excruciating because they involved physical and emotional abuse. Others came to realize their sad reality through unfortunate incidences like divorces. It is amusing how life takes us through circles, pain, and lessons until we snap out of our surreal lifestyle.

With just a few grammatical flaws, the book is professionally edited. The inspiring and thought-provoking nature of the work warrants it 4 out of 4 stars. Besides, I cherished how each narration was from a first-person perspective. I could feel the delight, agony, and other emotions experienced by the raconteurs. I recommend it to readers who want to be inspired by multiple experiences.

I was able to grasp that it is faith in the Lord that brings us miracles. Indeed, who won't serve a God like this? Thanks for a captivating review.

I enjoy books like this because they boost a believer's faith. Even the title is compelling. There's absolutely no one that wouldn't serve my God
