Discover the path to Scripture's most astounding promise—intimacy with the Creator Himself—in Drawing Near by international bestselling author and speaker John Bevere.

This enriching guide is tailored to those who desire a more intimate relationship with God, providing practical and spiritual guidance to bridge the gap between the earthly and the divine.
Drawing Near will help you:
- relate to God in new ways. Acclaimed for his mastery in articulating complex spiritual concepts, John Bevere breaks down barriers and allows you to access God’s promises in refreshing new ways.
- address a universal desire, the yearning for an intimate relationship with the Creator is a universal pull towards a higher calling.
- accept God's invitation to each one of us to be closer to Him. This profound book accentuates this divine invitation, teaching us the art of acceptance and enriching our lives with divine joy and anticipation.
- understand that prayer is a dialogue, not a monologue, Bevere encourages us to listen at the Father's feet. Lessons on prayer, understanding God's character, and tuning in to His voice provide a practical guide to spiritual intimacy.
- study God’s promises with questions in each chapter that offer an opportunity for reflection, and a "How to draw near to God" section offers practical steps toward developing true intimacy with Him.
