Seven Pathways: Ancient Practices for a Deeper Relationship with God

Beschreibung

Seven Pathways creates discipline and daily habits for spending meaningful time with God and builds peaceful margin in your day, so that you are refreshed and equipped to handle life’s difficulties. Do you long for the presence of God? Many people desire a deeper relationship with God but have no idea how to find it. The Bible seems overwhelming. Prayers seem unanswered. The bewildering landscape of podcasts, Bible studies, and sermons only adds to the confusion. Even long-term Christians often struggle to know God intimately and feel his presence. You are not alone. In Seven Pathways, Mary Carmen Englert guides you through the simple spiritual practices that lead to a deeper relationship with the Creator. When a freak accident plunged Mary Carmen into a life of chronic pain, which now appears to be from a rare cancerous tumor-acinic cell cancer that was found during the editing of this book, she struggled to carry on a relationship with God. Yet day by day, she pursued him through the practice of gratitude. From there, God drew her closer through prayer, reading Scripture, song, and other simple spiritual disciplines. As her body struggles to recover, her spirit is strengthened to endure this journey and enjoy a renewed relationship with God. Seven Pathways is a spiritual journey you can take, starting right where you are, to know God better and more fully than ever before. You will: · Experience the exceeding benefits of practicing gratitude regardless of your circumstance. · Begin to hear the voice of God speaking to you through Scripture. · Find your voice in speaking your heart to God in prayer and discover a practical weekly prayer plan. · Refresh and realign your thoughts through soul-enriching music before a noisy crowd of stressors invade. · Gain basic insights for digging deeper into Bible study and acquire confidence that the Bible is a trusted source about God. · Rediscover the lost art of Christian meditation and its power to release greater peace and wisdom by meditating on God’s Word. These historical Christian practices are integrated into a simple, creative, daily discipline to help you experience the presence of God in your everyday life. Join me and get in stride with God’s voice through creating a regular rhythm in spending time with him through the Seven Pathways journey.
