When you listen to this audio, you'll find that you aren't just listening. No, you are being remade, reoriented, restored from the frustration of what you may have known as stale religion.

This is a book that explains, in detail and in plain language, what it looks like for a Christian to have a relationship with the living God. Blackaby does a great job at laying out the basics of how we can "experience God" in our lives right here on earth, right now. If you are under the impression that Christianity is all about saying a little prayer so you can go to heaven when you die, you absolutely NEED to read this book. It will blow your mind!

In fact, I firmly believe that EVERY believer should read and own a copy of this book. (

A basic book for Christians using the Bible to discern a ministry in the church and moving toward to that end. This is very helpful for gradually coming to a definitive choice to leave secular society and envisioning the leadership which Jesus asks for all leaders and ministers. Many examples of questions, answers, and situational resolutions from the authors' own personal experiences. I have used Chapter 9 (God Invites You to Join Him) in sermons as samples for looking for concrete ways God is active in people's lives. Very helpful for beginners to read and be bolstered in their spiritual journey bound by the Bible and set on a future course toward some essential ministry.

Overall, I thought this study was a good one, although I didn't buy into all that was mentioned. I had some issues with some of the statements that are a reflection of their denominational background, but I still got a lot of good information and food for that in this study. I would recommend it. (

Blackaby's writing style is like Bolero by Ravel. It just expresses, builds and repeats. There is a rhythm to it. He presents a truth, builds on it, repeats it, presents another related truth, builds on it, repeats it, repeats the first truth, and on and on and on. You are drawn in. He presents real and compelling stories, examples and scripture to reinforce the truths he reveals. I have read this book more than once -- taught from it at least once. Never grows old. (

Epigraph

Dedication

To my parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. R. S. Blackaby, and parents-in-law, Mr and Mrs. M. A. Wells, Sr., for their faithful example before me; and to my wife Marilynn, for her faithful companionship, and my children, Richard, Thomas, Melvin, Norman, and Carrie, as we have been experiencing God together.

First words

"In 1986, when the World's Fair was coming to Vancouver, our association of churches was convinced God wanted us to try to reach the 22 million people that would come to that fair."

"I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come."
