Visibly Struck, an award-winning novel based on the true experiences of George Washington and his faith in the invisible hand of God, is an impactful and poignant story of faith, healing, and the unmistakable power of God.
Is God proactively involved in the affairs of man? Not according to Spitz. Sixteen years ago he tragically lost his only son and daughter-in-law in a fiery plane crash. Mired in grief and bitterness towards God, Spitz took early retirement to raise his granddaughter, Aspen. Seeking to prove his case against God, Spitz discovers George Washington’s assertion that God favorably intervened in the formation of the United States. Enraged, Spitz dares God to answer the charge that He is not lovingly proactive in our lives. Providentially, Spitz suffers a stroke. While lying in a coma, he is mysteriously transported in time to witness and record the signs, mercies, and favorable interventions of God that George Washington experienced.
As Spitz fights for his life both in the past and present, Aspen, an attractive and successful commodities analyst, must also come to terms on where and how God is directing her, especially when it concerns her new business associate. Without her Papa by her side, will Aspen choose to confront the hard truth of the past and allow for love?
Spitz’s inspiring journey blends faith, fact, and fiction, yielding a surprising perspective of the forces that shaped George Washington’s life and destiny. The scope of the factual evidence Spitz gathers is enlightening and heart changing, subtly stirring the question: Is God lovingly proactive in my life, too?
George Washington’s true beliefs about the many signs, mercies, and favorable interventions of God during the founding of America inspired Visibly Struck, a mesmerizing novel based on the true experiences of George Washington and his faith in the invisible hand of God protecting him and fashioning the country.
