It's been said that Centering Prayer is like two friends sitting together in silence, just being in each other's presence—completely natural and comfortable. Yet, Centering Prayer is sometimes viewed as too mysterious, too escapist, too hard. At first, it even appeared that way to the author, but events in his life and his further studies about prayer changed his views. Through Muyskens' insightful guidance, you'll explore a method of prayer that goes deeper than verbal conversations with God. This book teaches: silent communion with God a method of being open to the gift of God's presence a way of receiving a deep ad intimate relationship with God Each day's reading has a focal scripture verse and the author's reflection, ending with simple suggestions for contemplative prayer. You'll begin with as few as 5 minutes of Centering Prayer. By following the guidance in this book for 40 days, you will be led to a closer relationship with God. As you progress through the daily scripture and meditative readings in Forty Days to a Closer Walk with God, you'll find greater understanding and fresh awareness of Jesus' promise, "I am with you always."

The decision to be baptized into Christ represents the beginning of our walk with Jesus. As a part of the family of God, we are then responsible for setting a path for spiritual growth and maturity. Steven Cordle charts a course for all who would discover a closer walk with Jesus. God has graciously provided examples of those who have grown and matured in their faith. There are habits and characteristics that must be learned and incorporated into our daily lives. There are also those behaviors that hinder our growth which must be weeded from our lives if we are to develop into the likeness of Christ. Spiritual growth requires an intentional effort on our part. No one can "coast" to heaven. We must choose to have a closer walk with Jesus. STEVE CORDLE was born in Montgomery, Alabama and raised in Alaska. He became a Christian in 1985 after studying the Bible with a college roommate. He received his BA in Criminal Justice from the University of Alaska in Fairbanks in 1987 and graduated from the Bear Valley Bible Institute in Denver, Colorado in 1994. Steve has served churches in four states and Canada.

The call disconnected, but I still held the receiver. I felt detached. This couldn't really be happening. It must be a mistake. The realization washed over me that Ken was in trouble, but I never imagined how critical the situation was or the extent of how our lives would change. What happens when life turns against you, when from complete darkness you cry, "Where is the light?" Where is hope when the pit of pain you're in is deeper than your worst nightmare? Who do you turn to when you feel like you can't take one step further? Where is God in all this pain? Can we trust Him? After her husband suffered catastrophic injuries on a construction site, Sharon had to face the reality that her life had changed and would never be the same again. By turning to God, and confronting the challenges in her own faith walk, she determined to face head-on a more difficult journey than any she had imagined for her young family.

The Wesley Covenant Prayer has been used in Methodist services around the world on the first Sunday of the year since John Wesley introduced it in 1755. Wesley expected that people would pray this prayer as a way of remembering, renewing, and surrendering themselves in complete trust to God. When we pray it, we are to remember what living like Jesus looks like and what loving God with all our heart, soul, and mind and loving our neighbor as ourselves requires of us. In The Wesley Prayer Challenge, author Chris Folmsbee invites readers to consider words from the Wesley Covenant Prayer each day for three weeks while reflecting on their meaning in the context of the larger piece. Each day’s reading will include scripture, prayer, and a challenge for daily life. Additional components for a three-week study include a comprehensive leader guide and a DVD featuring author Chris Folmsbee.
