In Open to God Joyce Huggett addresses some of the 'barriers and blocks' to a deeper prayer life and offers practical guidance. Though especially suitable for the Advent and Christmas season, the book can be used at any time as a guide to meditation and prayer.
Light Amidst the Darkness by John Cox is a thought-provoking and spiritually enriching exploration of the Advent season. Through a series of powerful contrasts—death and hope, judgment and peace, heaven and joy, hell and love—Cox invites readers to reflect deeply on the light that shines through life’s darker moments.
Each chapter offers meditations that guide the reader toward a profound understanding of the Christian faith, culminating in the celebration of Christmas Day and the arrival of Jesus Christ, the ultimate source of light and love.
Perfect for personal reflection or group study, Light Amidst the Darkness is a heartfelt journey of hope, renewal, and faith during the sacred season of Advent.
Maybe you have reached a point in your spiritual life where you are beginning to feel tired, stressed, discouraged, lacking motivation, and possibly even distant from God. You might be feeling completely wrung out. Perhaps the busyness of life is placing pressure on you, preventing you from having the opportunity to rest, relax, and more importantly, to enjoy being with God. And, of course, busyness comes in many different forms, for example: vocational, parenting, volunteering, being a carer . . . and even in terms of church commitments. Or perhaps you are dealing with, or recovering from trauma or crisis in your life.
Patrick Coghlan’s new eBook ‘Rooted In God’ explores all these subjects in a spiritual and helpful way to see us all through these turbulent times.
