Intimacy With the Almighty
by Charles R. Swindoll
Swindoll's all-new book of insights to guide people on a journey of intimacy with the Almighty. God reserves His divine depths for those whose hearts are completely His ... for those who take time to wait before Him. Yet there is little in this harried, hassled age to encourage such intimacy. In Intimacy With the Almighty, Charles Swindoll offers all-new insights from his own journal in a keepsake book that includes pages in Swindoll's handwriting, a debossed, antique-looking cover, and a unique trim size. Swindoll reminds us that for a child of God to be intimately acquainted with Christ, we must develop the disciplines of simplicity, silence, solitude, and surrender.

Dear Heart, Come Home
by Joyce Rupp
Joyce Rupp shares her own midlife journey - its ups and downs - with such honesty and insight that you will surely identify with and benefit from the discoveries she has made along the way. Among them we can find wisdom in the wounds we've carried from birth onward, and these wounds can heal; past regrets must be let go lest they cling to us and drain our energy for life; the loving part of us can always out-wrestle the hating part; surprises of beauty and talent in us wait to be discovered and shared; some of what we thought to be unbreakable truth is now shattered pottery and unmendable; and our struggle to name God and to find a spirituality that enlivens and enriches our existence is less complex than we first thought.

Tortured Wonders Christian Spirituality for People, Not Angels
Clapp, Rodney
Brazos Press. New in New dust jacket. 2004. Hardcover. ; "Tortured Wonders" shows how orthodox Christian spirituality ''never gives up on the body.'' Rodney Clapp begins by addressing the incarnation of Christ and the resurrection of the body, and the place of sacraments in Christian spirituality. Then he takes up the likes of Elvis and Bambi to explore the spiritual consequences of our contemporary obsession with celebrity and the fear of death. He calls us to embrace our creatureliness through a string of irresistible topics: Is there sex in heaven? What is the most ''biblical'' posture for prayer? Can we learn anything from non-Christian spiritual traditions? Pastors, counselors, and anyone interested in Christian spirituality will appreciate this lucid and insightful book. .
