Life is an unpredictable journey full of twists and turns. The good news is that while we don't always know what's going to happen, we can always trust that God uses everything in our lives as an invitation to rely on him more deeply and completely.

In this audio Bible study, bestselling author Christine Caine shows that while most of us have been trained to fear the unexpected and want everything to be "under control," God wants us to anticipate the unexpected with a faith-filled perspective rooted in trust. He has never been taken by surprise.

We can move from a life filled with fear, control, and feeling stuck to one full of hope, faith, and trust. In an age of upheaval, we can still expect our God to be good and do good. We can trust God in the unpredictable circumstances of life by anticipating, welcoming, and even embracing the unexpected.

        In this book of inspirational stories, Caine (Unashamed), founder of the A21 Campaign, an organization that fights human trafficking, encourages readers to overcome fear of the unknown and accept that God has a plan for them. She begins with the memory of her 50th birthday party, when, on her way home from celebrating, she received word that her mother had died. Caine recounts how this intersection of joy and sorrow became an invitation to trust God, writing that this coincidence wouldn’t have happened if God didn’t have a plan for her. In many revealing stories, she demonstrates how faith in God’s power helped her recover from disappointment and tragedy. She writes in depth about her cancer diagnosis and how she fought against negative thinking (“Cancer was a condition I had,” she writes, “not who I was”). Caine describes how unexpected occurrences provoke fear, disappointment, betrayal, and disillusionment that can throw believers off of the path toward grace. Caine’s ability to wrestle through unsavory circumstances and substitute faith for fear will encourage both Christian and non-Christian readers.
