Many Christians today, even those who may be connected to small groups within the churches they attend, lack dynamic and intimate personal relationships with their Creator. Their exposure to the Scriptures is often limited to a once-a-week attendance at a worship service, and they struggle to maintain consistent and meaningful prayer and devotional lives. Already overwhelmed with life in a difficult time, many realize their spiritual lives are lacking but cannot imagine how to remedy the situation without adding even more complexity and trouble. This book provides practical answers to those willing to take a fresh look at what God has already provided to make a closer relationship possible. It is written as by one who is continuing to learn and willing to share what he has learned from the scriptures and from other authors.
