Chris Briscoe is a writer of non-fictional books with two main audiences: 1. - to reach those people who have never heard about God's amazing and unconditional love, and then to exhort them to reach out for this love. For those who need to hear this exciting news, he shares inside these pages about God's amazing love for each one of us, and how to experience this love. 2. - to reach those who have heard about God's  love for them, individually, but have never experienced or need to experience a deeper awareness of his Spirit working miraculously in their life; to those who need a a deeper walk of faith with God, through the powerful love of daily fellowship with God the Holy Spirit.
