Closer to God – A 10-Week Study on Prayer

by Emily Wickham

 While this book appears to be a day-by-day 10-week daily devotional, it is a rich and deep study of the biblical foundations of prayer – Relationship, Worship and Ministry. With a deeper weekly focus on Hope, Faith, Peace, Joy, Intercession and Leadership.

Each day beings with a short story from the author’s life experiences and a brief prayer. Which is followed by a scripture reading and a pause for meditation along with two questions for the reader to consider and use to write out their own prayer for the day.

This book is more than a “how-to” prayer guide, it is a hands on discovery into a deeper prayer life

Disclosure: I received this book free via NetGalley. The opinions I have expressed are my own, and I was not required to write a positive review.

AHA: The God Moment That Changes EverythingAHA: The God Moment That Changes Everything by Kyle Idleman

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“We’ve all had “aha!” moments in our lives, times when a sudden revelation surprises us with insight. According to pastor and bestselling author Kyle Idleman, we can experience this same kind of “aha!” in our spiritual lives. With everyday examples and trademark testimonies, Idleman draws on Scripture to reveal how three key elements can draw us closer to God and change our lives for good.

Awakening to the reality of our true spiritual condition, we see ourselves and our need for a Savior with renewed honesty. This realization leads to action, obeying God’s commands and following the example set by Christ. As we see in the transformation of the prodigal son, the result is a life-changing, destiny-altering collision—an AHA moment that leads us home to our loving Father.”
