God Conversations

Publisher: Authentic
ISBN: 9781780781884
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
How do I know it's God? is one of the most commonly asked questions of new and mature Christians alike, and the aim of God Conversations is to both equip and inspire the reader and show them that hearing the voice of the Spirit is accessible to everyone who chooses to follow Jesus. Most Christians know that God speaks, yet struggle with how to recognise his voice in their everyday lives. What does God's voice sound like? How do we know if what we're hearing is from God? Stories of God talking to his people abound throughout the Bible, but we usually only get the highlights. We read; "And God said to Joseph; 'Go to Egypt'," and then; "Mary and Joseph left for Egypt." We don't get a blow-by-blow description of how God spoke. We don't receive a detailed explanation of how they knew it was God, and we don't get to see what was going on inside their heads as they acted on what they'd heard. In God Conversations, international speaker and pastor Tania Harris shares insights from her own journey about hearing God's voice. You'll get to eavesdrop on some contemporary conversations with God in the light of his communication with the ancient characters of the Bible. Part memoir, part teaching, this unique and creative collection of stories will help you to recognise God's voice when he speaks and how to respond when you do.

A mother searching for answers - Elise Colby refuses to believe that her son Matthew's recent strange behavior is the result of a psychological disorder, and she's not about to put him on mind-altering medication. Eager to help her son and confident that the dark Native who came to her door can help them both, Elise acts on instinct and goes with Noel to his luxurious cave-home. A passionate affair that wasn't part of the plan - Elise has no intentions of living life in the jungle; she only wants her son to be cured. Noel's thoughts are solely on honing Matthew's healing powers so his people will continue the old ways he fights so strongly to hold on to.
