Frank Viola has just released a new book called God\u2019s Favorite Place on Earth<\/a> that could change your relationship with God, help you defeat bitterness, free you from a guilty conscience, and help you overcome fear, doubt and discouragement.<\/p>\n

This is a book that will jar you out of your “Christian rut” and give you new eyes for looking at life. It\u2019s a quick, inspiring, and entertaining read.<\/p>\n

\"Gods<\/a><\/p>\n

Over 47 Christian leaders have recommended the book including John Ortberg, Greg Boyd, David Fitch, Leonard Sweet, Jack Hayford, Mary DeMuth, Mark Batterson, Jon Acuff, Anne Miller, Craig Keener, Pete Wilson, Todd Hunter, Jenni Catron, and many others.<\/p>\n

The premise of the book is simple and 100% Biblical: when Jesus was on the earth, He was rejected everywhere He went . . . from Bethlehem, to Nazareth, to Jerusalem. The only exception was the little village of Bethany.<\/p>\n

The curtain opens with Lazarus, who is now ready to die, telling the incomparable story of Jesus\u2019 interactions with him, Martha, and Mary. God\u2019s Favorite Place on Earth<\/i> blends drama, devotion, biblical narrative, and first-century history to create a riveting book that you\u2019ll find difficult to put down. Within each narrative, the common struggles Christians face are addressed and answered.<\/p>\n
