#1 New York Times Bestseller

Guthrie persuasively renders the evolution of a hard-won religious belief that makes room for imperfection and "does not require us to ignore... the sorrows we experience or the unjustness we see but to believe past it." This openhearted offering inspires.—Publishers Weekly

Mostly what God does is love you.

If we could believe this, really believe this, how different would we be? How different would our lives be? How different would our world be?

If you ever struggle with your connection to God (or whether you even feel connected to a faith at all!), you're not alone. Especially in our modern world, with its relentless, never-ending news cycle, we can all grapple with such questions. Do we do that alone, with despair and resignation? Or do we make sense of it with God, and with hope? In these uncertain times, could believing in the power of divine love make the most sense?

In this collection of essays, Savannah Guthrie shares why she believes it does. Unspooling personal stories from her own joys and sorrows as a daughter, mother, wife, friend, and professional journalist, the award-winning TODAY show coanchor and New York Times bestselling author explores the place of faith in everyday life.

Sharing hard-won wisdom forged from mountaintop triumphs, crushing failures, and even the mundane moments of day-to-day living, Mostly What God Does reveals the transformative ways that belief in God helps us discover real hope for this life and beyond.

A perfect companion to your morning cup of coffee, this incisive volume—not a memoir but a beautiful tapestry of reflections crafted as a spiritual manual—includes:

• a fresh, biblically rooted look at six essentials of faith: love, presence, grace, hope, gratitude, and purpose;
• an honest exploration of questions, doubts, and fears about the love of God;
• a dose of encouragement for the faith-full, the faith-curious, and the faith-less; and
• …and much more.

This deeply personal collection is designed to engage the practical ways that God loves you—not just the world, but you—and to inspire you to venture down a path of faith that is authentic, hopeful, destiny-shaping, and ultimately life-changing.

I loved the presentation. Down to earth, honest, relatable and inspiring. I will listen again and again.

Truth

What a beautiful, intelligent and honesty testimony of faith. The Lord’s wisdom shines through this book. Brava

Relateable To All. Wonderfully written and shared to speak to our Holy Spirit through her own.

The fact that she experiences so much joy and has seen other people’s sufferings and continued to explain, in her own words, how much God Loves Us and is present in our troubles

Inspiring, Reflective

Nothing Savannah shares in this book is new to me. However, hearing her words ministered to my heart more than I anticipated. I am grateful for her transparency with her faith journey.

Faith

Samantha's honesty and love and trust in God and the in recognizing His love for her.

Spirituality

Savannah writing was so validating for me! I’m not a believer in organized religion as I once was during childhood and adulthood, however thanks to my daughter, she helped me find my own voice which I then allowed myself to realize my true belief is owning my true spirtuality.

mostly what God does

so beautifully written!! So inspired to take a pause and remember what God Does in my life too!!

Simple but meaningful

Not sure what I was expecting but I really loved this book. I think so often we complicate God and faith but Savannah makes it so simple and boils it down to the most important part, God’s love for us.

amazing

honest, genuine, thought provoking and inspiring, I really needed this book to fill my soul with an awareness of God's love for us
