What Are You Waiting For? Intimacy with God can happen right now if you want it. A closeness you can feel, a goodness you can taste, a reality you can experience for yourself. That's what the Bible promises, so why settle for less? God is closer than you think, and connecting with him isn't just for monks and ascetics. It's for business people, high school students, busy moms, single men, single women ... and most important, it's for YOU. God Is Closer Than You Think shows how you can enjoy a vibrant, moment-by-moment relationship with your heavenly Father. Bestselling author John Ortberg reveals the face of God waiting to be discovered in the complex mosaic of your life. He shows you God's hand stretching toward you.

有個愛你的人正等著想見你。

「聖經中最常出現的應許是--我與你同在。」你是否曾想過……
如果,神總是和我同在,為何我都看不見?
如果,主說祂的羊認得祂的聲音,為何我都聽不到?
如果,神與我們的關係如聖經所說的那般親密,為何我總覺得祂似乎離我很遠?

讀完本書,你會發現……

• 祂總在你最意想不到的地方出現
• 我們的心思中有一個神的居所
• 你能更敏銳地分辨出神的聲音
• 有一種專為你設計的屬靈關係
• 聖靈的河流正等著你向祂敞開
• 即使神似乎是缺席時,其實祂--比你所認為的還要靠近!

John Ortberg is one of my favorite authors. He always challenges me to go deeper in my relationship with God and others. I enjoy the humor that often makes me laugh out loud and his stories and insights always touch my heart. ( )

A very encouraging, inspiring and also practical book for anyone wanting to know more of God's presence day by day. John Ortberg writes in his usual friendly style, with amusing throwaway lines and family anecdotes here and there. He also covers a lot of very important issues, and debunks certain viewpoints (such as the idea that God is only interested in people doing 'spiritual' activities).

There's a useful chapter about different pathways to finding God: this was very reassuring to one who sometimes finds church services rather dull. There's also a chapter about why God sometimes seems far away. And much more.

I'd recommend this very highly to anyone even remotely interested in Christian spirituality. A book I am sure I'll return to.

"This can be the greatest moment of your life because this moment is the place where you can meet God." This is the underlying theme of this book. Using scripture, the arts and personal anecdotes, Ortberg presents the how's and why's of living daily with God. He acknowledges each person's uniqueness and presents intimacy with God as available to each person in a way that suits their unique needs and desires.

This is one of the best books I've read on the subject because Ortberg does not just write that we should have an intimate relationship with God, but describes how to get it in a very real, easy way. Highly recommended for any Christian wanting to get closer to the King. ( )
