Scott H. Silverman, a nationally recognized addiction recovery expert, crisis coach, and CNN Hero, is receiving widespread praise for his latest book, YOU’RE NOT GOD: That Job Is Taken. The book offers a practical exploration of control and the freedom that comes from letting go, an approach that has resonated strongly with literary critics and readers alike.
Known for his decades of work supporting individuals and families through addiction, crisis, and recovery, Silverman brings a human perspective to a universal struggle: the belief that we must control everything to succeed. Critics nationwide have applauded the book’s ability to challenge that belief while offering clarity and hope.
One critic noted, “This book helps the reader see their own limitations in a completely new light. It encourages readers to view limitations as opportunities for growth rather than sources of frustration. Readers will realize it’s okay not to have all the answers, and that sometimes the most powerful thing one can do is step back, listen, and let others contribute.”
Another reviewer highlighted the book’s relevance in both personal and professional life, writing, “Our need for control feels natural, maybe even necessary. It helps us feel safe and reassures us that our efforts will pay off. But this sense of security can become a slippery slope in a world that doesn’t play by our rules. This book takes a close look at the myths surrounding total control and challenges the belief that controlling everything is the key to success and happiness.”
When asked about the inspiration behind the book, Silverman explained, “I wrote this book to offer tools to help people along the way in life. These tools are practical and, more importantly, human. We often complicate things when sometimes it’s as simple as taking a breath, reaching out for help, or choosing patience over perfection. That’s what this book is about.”
At its core, the message of YOU’RE NOT GOD: That Job Is Taken is disarmingly simple. Silverman urges that people create space for clarity, connection, and meaningful change.
YOU’RE NOT GOD: That Job Is Taken is currently available in Kindle format on Amazon.
