Almost: When Living for God Falls Short
()
About this ebook
Do you ever feel like you are doing all the right things to get closer to God, but even when you try to follow the scriptures more closely, something is still lacking? Do you still feel a void no matter what you do?
In Almost, author Dr. Berkley Baker explains that to experience Jesus more fully, we must be willing to grab hold of His nature. By exploring the nature of the Lord in the context of our relationship with Him, Baker makes it clear that we are uniquely designed to have a dynamic relationship with a personal and intimate God, one who is drawing you ever closer. This is not something that can be accomplished by rules and routines; instead, you must reach for a life characterized by an interactive connection with our Creator in a uniquely original way.
Uplifting and personal, this study reveals a way for believers to move beyond the scripted experience of living for God and into the abundant, purpose-filled life of living with Him.
