She blends personal stories, Scriptural insights, and lessons drawn from years in ministry into insightful reflections on the beauty and challenges of aging.

God reveals Himself to us in the Holy Scriptures, and from His Word we can learn about His nature, His character, and His plan for humankind. Yet this spiritual journey takes something more than just reading the words in the Bible and applying our own interpretations—it takes authentic faith and a good deal of help from the Holy Spirit. God’s Unreasonable Reasoning is a captivating spiritual guidebook that can help you understand God’s reasoning in life’s many transitions, and it can change the way you interpret the experiences that you don’t understand in your daily life. Author and ordained bishop Dr. Preston Williams II offers insight into why human reasoning can’t assume that God sees things as we see them, explaining how human reasoning can be an enemy of faith since it is driven by our human nature and the physical experiences of life. With this understanding, you can experience the self-discovery and the wisdom that can prepare you to confront the rapid and complex challenges and transformations in today’s world. Sharing his own remarkable personal stories of trials, transitions, and ultimate triumphs, Dr. Williams invites you to be inspired to follow your own dreams by seeing the world through God’s eyes and allowing your path to be illuminated by biblical principles, metaphors, and insights that will stir your soul and touch the core of every heart earnestly seeking its own destiny on the journey of life.
