More from Chuck
Sometimes life hits you unexpected, and when it doesn’t let up, you might feel a bit bewildered. That was me, when time after time I kept getting up, only to get knocked right back down again. I couldn’t understand why bad things kept happening to me, a good person, a good man. I was doing things the right way, so I thought. I married a God-fearing woman. I was using my life for God’s purpose. I had devoted my life to teaching the next generation as a youth pastor. Everything should have been smooth and easy, right? Amid a dark storm, nothing seemed easy. Why hardship hit so relentlessly was a mystery to me. Things didn’t seem fair. And when nothing made sense, I was reeling, searching, and found myself on the backside of the wilderness screaming to a God who only seemed to have a deaf ear turned my way. Sound familiar? In this book, I take you on a great journey to find answers when most answers seemed bleak, if not non-existent. Take God’s hand with me, he’s there, I promise. I’ll show you how his voice is so clear and distinct, even when we have trouble seeing which way is up. All That the Locusts Have Eaten is a testament to how God can bring us through, and that, in unexpected ways.

My Review
I appreciated how author Chuck Carr was able to tell his story in his All That The Locusts Have Eaten: God's Redemption Through Loss and Heartache. I admired his honesty and courage to help encourage others who have, also, endured anguish and misery in their own lives. I love how he was able to find strength in his faith and in the Lord. I was inspired by reading this.
I am giving All That The Locusts Have Eaten: God's Redemption Through Loss and Heartache a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading personal memoirs on how to overcome tragedy. I would love to read more by Chuck Carr in the future.
I received a digital copy of All That The Locusts Have Eaten: God's Redemption Through Loss and Heartache from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
