“How could I put flesh and reality to this Being called ‘God’? 

How could my understanding of His love for me move from an exercise of the brain to an experience of the heart?”

Life is God’s Love Story

As parents, we want to have abundant relationships with our children. Yes, we want them to turn to us in times of crisis, but we also want to be part of the joys and the “everyday stuff.” That is what your parents desired for you when you were growing up, and that is the type of relationship God wants with you now and always.

Michael Gagné once viewed God remotely, knowing Him only as he might a sports figure. The turning point came when Michael became a parent. He realized his day-to-day experiences with his children—both positive and not-so-positive—were similar to his relationship with God. The trials, tribulations, and joys of his children became the lens through which this dad saw how God—our true Parent and Source of Being—wants to spend time with His children.

You, too, can experience God’s love alive in you

and put meaning, understanding, and a relatedness to this Love
that seeks to guide us all to peace, purpose, and depth.

“This wonderful book gave me something that is very hard to come by these days—perspective. Michael’s candor and entertaining style made it a joy to read. The chapters are arranged into thoughtful vignettes supported by powerful and relatable personal stories. They work in harmony to address the most important facets of relationship with self, children, parents and God. For any religion, belief system or spiritual journey, your views related to meaning and purpose will be forever improved. I can’t wait to read this again soon with a group!”

This collection of personal stories and anecdotes is refreshing and inspirational. I found myself being pulled into the narrative. God’s love is a foundation and a guiding principle for my family, but this book is about so much more than that. It is about embracing the imperfect nature of humans and your journey as a parent. It is about using your heart. Mostly, this book is a collection of masterful and intimate lessons about Love and the expressions of a Loving God through your children.

Michael Gagne’s candor about the day-to-day interactions with his children made me feel as though I was present when each incident occurred. He ties the analogies of his love for his son with God’s love for us brilliantly! This book made me realize how much the love we have for our children, the desire to protect them at all costs, while not infringing upon their free will, parallels God’s feelings for us. It gave me a new perspective and understanding of God’s love for us.

My wife and I started reading one chapter per week as instructed and have been really enjoying the time to connect with God in a different way than we’ve ever experienced. We are going on our fourth year of marriage and are hopeful parents one day. Even without children, this book has been very relatable. I’ve read about considering God as a ‘parent’ but could never truly grasp the concept. Halfway in, I’m starting to understand what this truly means and have been encountering a new relationship with the Holy Father.

Letting Your Children Lead You to God is a phenomenal guide to how to just let go and let God. The writing style is very personal and conversational which makes it easy to read and to relate with. In our current situation this is a great book to help you re-center on what’s important.

Meet Michael

Michael Gagné was a struggling college student trying to make ends meet, until a high voltage accident took him on a different path, with many twists and turns to make it to his ultimate goal: a deep personal relationship with God.

This book is a series of reflections on how everyday parenting experiences led me to realize how loved I am by the Source of all life. I believe life is about sharing our stories to enrich each other’s lives. 

I invite you to share YOUR experiences as a parent and as a child, 

so that we may continue to learn from each other.
