You know that perfect feeling? That Life-Is-Good moment on the open highway with the windows down and the radio up, when the perfect song comes on, and you sing along with carefree, top of your lungs abandon? When joy and contentment and life well up from somewhere deep in your soul? What if you could live that way? A seventeenth-century monk named Brother Lawrence figured out how, and wrote about it in the devotional classic, The Practice of the Presence of God. He found a way to connect with God moment by moment, to experience the joy of his divine presence every minute of every day—whether during deep, contemplative prayer or while washing a sink full of dishes. In God Is Here, Steve Case unearths that seventeenth-century wisdom and remixes it into a twenty-first-century guide to everyday life. With modern, thought-provoking essays drawn from Brother Lawrence’s original writings, God Is Here shows you how to connect with a God who’s always available. God is here. Connect.
