What if God looked exactly like you, but was smiling?
God Made Me from Spare Parts is a book of illustrated parables that blend spiritual insight, imagination, and humor. Through visionary dream encounters, a troubled protagonist calls out to God for guidance—and encounters a compassionate, disarmingly human deity who offers surprising perspectives and delightful wisdom to help overcome adversity.
Written while grieving his father's death and stranded far from home, each of Tji’s parables offers a short meditation on fear, love, loss, faith, and the everyday struggles of being human. With touching stories and striking illustrations, the book invites readers to pause, reflect, and see their own lives with refreshed compassion and clarity.
Ideal for spiritual seekers, contemplative readers, and anyone looking for encouraging inspiration, God Made Me from Spare Parts is a true companion for healing and renewal.
“If you’re ready to meet God in an exciting and unforgettable way, read and re-read this soul-touching book.”
