Falling for God

Description

Falling in love is one of life’s greatest joys.
So imagine the endless joy of falling head over heels for God.

Falling in love is one of the most magnificent experiences of human life. Remember what it feels like? How it happens? You spend time with that special someone, get to know each other, and then one day find yourselves so intimately connected it is as though your souls have become intertwined.

Compare that experience with your current relationship with God. Why doesn’t it feel just as passionate, just as wonderful? Gary Moon believes it can.

If you’re not head over heels in love with God, you’re missing out on an incredible experience–but you’re not without hope. Falling for God will inspire you to pursue a passionate, intimate relationship with a God who–even though he doesn’t need anything from you–wants more than anything to be united with you.

Through Bible study, personal meditation, and classic spiritual exercises, you’ll discover how to experience this loving connection with the lover of your soul. The journey will take you through honest conversation and active communion to a deeper experience of intimate union with God. Falling for God will move you to embrace an all-out passion for joyful and abundant living.“Gary Moon writes with a combination of thoughtfulness, guidance, and joy that will serve every reader. He has taken the deepest longing of the soul and the wisdom of great minds from past centuries and woven them in a way that is accessible and helpful to any who want to grow close to God.”
