The Satiable Quest is a very thought provoking book. It deals with, in a very direct manner, how that Christians everywhere are searching the Scriptures to find answers for their restlessness and discontentment with self and with life. In the introduction, Pastor Gordon says: "It is preparation time and each of us will need to hear either the soul that nourishes and guides us as the source for sound reasoning, or sink in eternal quicksand."

Throughout its pages ring forth the fact that we have available to us the wisdom and power of Almighty God, along with our own individual voice or conscience, if you will, that will guide us along every step of life's journey, and that as long as we stay with God, and our voice, we will move in the right direction safely. This direction, Pastor Gordon calls a satiable quest. We are encouraged to look at our inner selves, and to make appropriate changes whenever and wherever necessary in order to have a more profound relationship with God, and thus enjoy a life of peace.

She likens the sins we constantly delve in as excess baggage that weighs us down, and we must get rid of that sinful baggage. That sinful baggage includes but is not limited to: worldly lust, adultery, and sodomy. Dump the Trash (sin) Before it Dumps You, is one of the chapter headings.

The soul is constantly searching for something and Gordon discussed three main things the soul desperately searches after: (1) salvation; (2) reaching your destiny through the Master Potter; (3) unity and healing while there is still light. As chapter twelve tells us, Our Souls Must Run on and See What the End Will Be!

If you are a serious minded Christian and you want greater spiritual enlightenment, a closer walk with the Lord, daily peace that passeth all understanding, and joy unspeakable, this book is a must read for you.
