About this ebook
"Despite the serious topic of this book, it is a delight to read. Thompson tackles the natural desire to resist God’s calling with such energy that the book is hard to put down." -Elizabeth Wisz, Christian Market
"Reading like a moving sermon, Thompson’s book of biblical lessons will appeal to Christians looking for spiritual encouragement." -Publisher's Weekly
Go.
One small word. . .so much power.
When God says, “Go,” we face one of life's greatest decisions.
When God says, “Go,” we must face our fears. . .our excuses. . .and our selves.
When God says, “Go,” it's time to answer His call wherever it leads.
When God says, “Go," what will you do?
Author Elizabeth Laing Thompson invites you to walk alongside people of the Bible who were called by God to fulfill His purposes. . .people like Moses, Esther, Abigail, Jeremiah, Mary, and others. These Bible heroes responded much like we do--with a jumbled-up inner storm of excitement and fear, insecurity and hope. Their stories and struggles will provide a roadmap for your own story, helping you face your very own doubts, regrets, and worries.
When God calls, it’s time to go. Maybe somewhere new, someplace you've never been. Maybe it’s time to go forward after being stuck with one foot in the past. Maybe it’s time to go deeper—in Bible study or relationships. Time to go higher—in prayer or dreams. Time to go and give—to use talents and opportunities God has given you. Or maybe it’s time to go and grow, right where you are. . .to dig into the Word, dive into your heart, and become the woman God is calling you to be.
Ready or not, God is calling us all to go somewhere new in our walk with Him. So what are we waiting for? Let’s answer His call. Let’s get started!

Truth We've all been there. We hear the voice of God, telling us to go...to do His will in a certain situation. Do we listen, or do we make excuses until someone else steps up and grabs the blessing that we were meant to have? When God Says Go is a great reminder that it's not about us, it's about Him and His will. Courage to step up doesn't come easy, but it helps to know that God will be there right beside you, guiding your steps and helping you to succeed. I highly recommend this book to those who need that extra nudge to do the right thing....which includes most everyone, I believe. “I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review.”

I loved the author's ability to "humanize" characters of the Bible whose stories are often too familiar. This was well-drenched in appropriate Scripture and stayed away from the self-centered thoughts and ideals of many authors out there today.

As a minister, speaker, and novelist, she loves finding humor in holiness, and hope in heartache. She lives in North Carolina with her preacher husband and four spunky kids, and they were totally worth the wait.
