It was January 7, 2007. That was the first time I met Bill Johnson. Not surprising to anyone was that he spoke on the Goodness of God then. This message of God's goodness is not something that he whipped up as a good idea. It is something that he has been living through for many, many years. I remember how impacted I was then and how overwhelmed I am now. You would think that a book like this would be a no-brainer. The problem is that we have all gone through the trials and afflictions of life. We don't understand the deep effect that has on us and to our belief systems. If yo have ever done any counseling, you discover real quick that many people blame God for a lot of their troubles. This makes it difficult for them, thinking they have to convince the Father to be kind to them.
This book exposes how far we have strayed from the truth in the thought of Whom God is. He revealed Himself to Moses as Goodness. Jesus said only the Father is Good. The Father is a lot better than we think, so we should change the way we think is not a tag line. It has been Bill's challenge to himself in every situation, and now it is ours. You will be challenged in this book. Not with hard concepts, but with the simplicity in Christ.
I don't know of anything that might be a the root of so much conflict as the thought that God is a Good God. You would think that His people would certainly know Him already. I love the book because it is not about a God who is willing to sacrifice His other characteristics for Goodness. God is a completely Good as He is completely Just, Righteous, Longsuffering, and Holy. Bill teaches about God's goodness without sacrificing our responsibility to live a Godly life. If you will grasp what is in this book, I believe you will say like the Psalmist:
Psa. 27:13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
That I would see the goodness of the LORD
In the land of the living.
So go ahead, read this great book and be exposed to the Greatness of Good God. I dare you to stay the same when you are done. I not, but I haven't been since January 2007. That is the power of God's Goodness to those who believe.
