Where Is God When Disaster Strikes?: Finding Hope, Presence, and Purpose in the Midst of Crisis

When floods rage, fires consume, and storms shake the very ground we stand on, one question echoes through the chaos:
Where is God?
This timely and compassionate book was born from a heartfelt sermon and inspired by real tragedies-floods in Texas that claimed young lives and wildfires in Maui that devastated communities. Through biblical reflection, personal experience, and pastoral insight, Pastor John E. Miller guides readers through the emotional and spiritual wreckage that disasters leave behind.
Rooted in Wesleyan theology and anchored in Scripture, this book offers a path forward through fear, grief, and uncertainty. Each chapter addresses a real aspect of crisis:

• How to recognize God's presence when the ground shakes
• What it means to grieve with hope
• How the Church can respond with action and compassion
• What to do when restoration feels far away
• How to prepare your heart and home for crisis
• Why eternal hope matters even now

With devotional prompts, prayer guides, and practical preparation tools, this book is ideal for personal reflection, church groups, and ministry leaders.
