Interview With Faith Author Bruce B Miller

 

  1. What motivated you to write your book, to force you from taking an idea or experience and turning it into this book? I hear sincere questions from people who are not getting answers in their churches. People inside churches and outside churches ask about God, faith the purpose of life. They are desperate to discover answers.

 

  1. What is it about and who is it for? The book addresses the seven big questions about God, faith and purpose that have most searched on the Internet. No matter your faith background, we all have questions about God, our purpose, and why bad things happen. Trying to find reliable answers can be overwhelming. It’s hard to know who to trust with the questions you are most afraid to ask. The book is designed for those who have questions no matter their faith background

 

  1. What takeaways might the reader will be left with after reading it? The reader will feel more secure in answering these big questions, have resolved some doubts and be motivated to continue to explore God and faith.

 

  1. How did you decide on your book’s title and cover design? The title and design come from Global Media Outreach who acquired Explore God. Some of their original team helped created the title and cover design. We ran a test of several covers on social media and this cover got the most votes.

 

  1. What advice or words of wisdom do you have for fellow writers? Stay with it. Persevere. Do not give up. For me I aim to free write to just get content on the page, then discipline yourself to edit and edit and edit again, and you need help to edit well. You cannot fully edit your own material. You need fresh eyes.

 

  1. What trends in the book world do you see -- and where do you think the book publishing industry is heading? I see a move to audible books as the highest growing category, but I think print and epub/digital/Kindle books will also continue to be read. I think we are seeing more books in a series as well.

 

  1. What challenges did you overcome to write this book? We edited this book more than 10 others I have written, over a period of 7 years. It took time and seemed like it would never happen, but now it exists. After that much time we had to make edits based on Covid to address in the chapter on pain and suffering.

 

  1. How would you describe your writing style? My style is like an intelligent conversation. I write as if talking with a friend who cares about the topic and thinks deeply.

 

  1. If people can buy or read one book this week or month, why should it be yours? This book addresses universal human questions that we often dodge but are crucial for our souls, to live a good life here, and in the life after.
