Q&A Mastin Kipp

A CONVERSATION WITH THE BEST-SELLING AUTHOR AND LIFE COACH

Why does God send a storm when a rain shower will do? That’s a question we asked Mastin Kipp, motivational speaker and author of the bestselling book The Daily Love: Growing Into Grace and the recently released Claim Your Power. In 2004, Mastin was 22, a Kansas native living the dream in Hollywood. Until it became a nightmare. A “divine storm” uprooted Mastin’s life and sent him down a remarkable path of self-discovery. We recently Skyped him to get some answers on why everything had to go wrong for things to go right.…

What exactly is a divine storm? 

A divine storm is basically when everything in your life seems to go crazy. It’s a crisis you didn’t see coming. It could last a day, a week, a year, even longer. And it can be hugely painful. Maybe money is running away from you. You can’t seem to get a job. A close friend passes away. And you sort of feel like, Is God against me? Is someone following me around and purposely sabotaging my life? I call it a divine storm because, from a spiritual perspective, it really is God trying to get your attention. If you’re in a divine storm, you’ll know. You’ll definitely know. The set of circumstances is too bizarre for it not to be from God.

Why is he trying so hard to get our attention?
