It is easy to know God's love in the mind, but for many it is difficult to believe it in the heart. This book is for those who want to feel the real love of God but can't. The author identifies the fundamental issues that stop a person from receiving and experiencing the love of God in all its fullness. Having ministered for over a decade at a deep level in people's lives, Ken shows how we can distort our image of Father God through our own false perceptions of Him. He passionately reaches out to those who have a broken father image and sets about to repair it. With a warm and conversational style the author powerfully demonstrates every individual's value to Father God and leaves the reader in no doubt just how loved and wanted we are.

'Where does the creative act come from? No one knows. All the rash of literature in recent times from artists, scientists and theologians on the subject of consciousness finds its origin in this puzzle.Creating what has happened to one into an art form has one effect: it dissolves the barrier between the present and the past.

They are not a big offering but they mean a lot to me. The most important of these is the long poem IN-GRATITUDE which comes first.

Powers, a special assistant in the White House. They were among the president’s closest friends, part of an exclusive inner circle that came to be known as the “Irish Mafia.” In Johnny, ...
