InterVarsity Press, Jul 27, 2010 - Religion - 64 pages
Most Christians have experienced the "laundry list" phase of spiritual life, in which praying means giving God an agenda of needs to handle. How do you move to having real conversation with God? How do you hear what God is saying back to you? How can you make your experience of God being with you part of everyday life? In this study guide, Jan Johnson covers the disciplines of prayer and of practicing God's presence. Going deeper in these areas will help you to draw closer to God in everything you do.
