Description
Discover how to fulfill the truest and deepest longings of your heart when you encounter the powerful and healing presence of Jesus.
New York Times bestselling author John Eldredge reveals the path of the "ordinary mystic," and invites you into the refuge of experiencing deep, lasting, real communion with Jesus.
In this present age, we are all becoming disciples of the Internet. We are addicted to distraction. We idolize our instant access to a never-ending avalanche of information. We think we're finally holding the keys to a better life. But if that's true, why are we wrestling with ever-increasing levels of anxiety, dissatisfaction, and despair The fact is, we live in a world of weary, skeptical pragmatism--and it's keeping us from experiencing the God we are dying without.
In Experience Jesus. Really. John Eldredge guides you to a beautiful alternative to the soulless, disenchanted existence you find yourself living in today: the path of the “ordinary mystic.” To walk this path means to experience the daily presence of God, as did David, Daniel, Esther, Isaiah, Christ's disciples, and Paul . . . all the way back to Adam and Eve in Eden. When you join John on this journey, you will find stories, practices, and prayers to help you:
- Recover your capacity to believe again
- Take refuge in the mighty presence of God that surrounds you all the time
- Discover the exquisite comfort of actual communion with Jesus every day
- Connect with ancient, biblical ways to heal your soul, protect your family, and revive your faith
- Learn practices, habits, and prayers that will transform your ability to hear the voice of Jesus in your day-to-day life
Every human yearns to return to Eden, to a state of unbroken communion with the God who created us for adventure and intimacy with him. The mystic is awake to the truth that God is still with us--and we experience the refuge of his powerful, healing presence if we learn to open our hearts to him. This book is your invitation to experience the everyday refuge, strength, and wonder available to the friends of Jesus.
