From award-winning author Sara Cormany, Even When is a raw and reflective devotional that ushers readers into God’s presence during difficult times and reminds us that even our hardest stories are written by the hand of a good God.

In these uniquely challenging and unprecedented post-pandemic times, the notion that God’s goodness ensures an easy journey has been met by the unfaltering truth that life is hard. It’s not a question of if there will be trials, but when. Sara Cormany knows this reality all too well. However, through personal health complications and family tragedy, she has chosen to believe that Jesus is enough.

Even When beautifully weaves together the inevitability of hard times with the unyielding heart of God’s goodness and inspires readers to experience His presence amid the storm in their lives. Each devotion begins with an “Even when…” statement, followed by a poignant personal story, a Bible verse, and a thought-provoking question that will encourage readers to embrace the truth that God is enough — even in our darkest moments.

This powerful devotional helps readers to:

  • Become more comfortable with the difficult truth that life not only can, but will be hard.
  • Reflect on where God has shown up in their own hardships.
  • Experience God’s goodness while enduring life's challenges.
  • Explore what it looks like to “suffer well” and trust God as Jesus did on the Cross.
  • Love God and know God’s love in a fallen world.

Vulnerable and authentic, Even When strikes a universal chord and points readers toward the heart of God’s goodness in even the most challenging of circumstances, knowing that even when life is hard, He is always good.

Sara writes from a foundation of the character of God and the truth of His Word, resulting in words that will nurture your heart and mind. Sara conveys hope and purpose in the most difficult of circumstances and most stark of realities because she has experienced hope and purpose in those places. You will find a sincere, hilarious, and faithful friend telling stories that will testify to God's constant love and presence for His people in Even When.

Even When:: Experiencing God's Presence During Difficult Days --40 Daily Devotions by Sara Cormany.
Sara writes from personal experience of difficult days but also writes with a heart of faith that has been blessed by God's abundance of Grace! Each of the brief daily devotions pack so much of God's Grace and the message of His real, present help; they are well written and so very relatable. I love how each devotion has a brief "Question" section that is a helpful reflection for self assessment; and also a Prayer that is well written to connect directly to God's heart in a manner that culminates the devotional thought. And I was impressed with both the Foreward and Conclusion as they also were personal and inspirational.
This is a most excellent daily devotional and I highly recommend it!! My only negative assessment is that I wish it were a full year of devotions (365 rather than 40); but I will certainly look forward to future items published by this author, whether devotionals or a theological or inspirational book!

I received my copy yesterday. Having had the honor to read an advanced copy, I can say with all confidence, this is a devotional you will want to read and absorb. Some books teach positive, faith filled messages that are greatly needed and encouraging. Then there are the hope-filled, faith-filled, and Christ-filled books with every message. Even When is that devotional. Sara has shared the raw, the painful, the impossible, with a message of hope and lots of moments of humor to show that even in the deepest dark, Jesus shines through. I am so honored to call her a friend. Rev. Sharen Long
