God Why?

What if the question you've been afraid to ask God is the very question that begins the conversation?At four years old, Arthur Smotherman was left behind by his mother. What followed was a lifetime of searching for love, acceptance, identity, and belonging.That search led him down roads he never imagined—through broken relationships, destructive decisions, crime, and prison.But prison wasn't the end of his story. God, Why? is an unfiltered true-life memoir about childhood abandonment, the consequences of our choices, and the transforming love of Jesus Christ.Through deeply personal experiences, Arthur shares the questions he asked, the mistakes he made, and the discoveries that changed how he understood God, himself, and the people around him.This isn't a story about a perfect man. It's a story about a God whose love never stopped reaching for him.From a little boy wondering why he was left behind to a man now carrying hope to children and families around the world, Arthur's journey is a powerful reminder: Your past does not have the authority to define your future.If you've ever struggled with rejection, shame, regret, or the question "e;God, why?"e;—this story is for you.
