Description
What comes into your mind when you hear the phrase "communion with God"? Sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, arms outstretched, humming? Losing yourself in emotional ecstasy? Being ushered into another dimension? Centering rituals? Emptying your mind and hearing audible voices from God?
Through a series of meditations on several biblical passages, Scott Aniol demonstrates that communion with God is not mystical or mysterious--rather, communion with God is rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ, clearly communicated throughout the Scriptures, and absolutely vital for a fruitful Christian life that brings God ultimate glory.
