More than three hundred years ago, a French monk named Brother Lawrence discovered how to live in God’s presence moment by moment. His reflections have become the devotional classic The Practice of the Presence of God. Discover his secret as you read this timeless classic! Brother Lawrence was born Nicholas Herman in Lorraine province, France in about 1605. He came from a humble background and was an unlearned man. He became a Christian in 1629, and after being a soldier and a footman for some time, he entered the religious community of the Carmelites in Paris in about 1649. It was there, as a lay brother, that he took the name of Brother Lawrence. He remained in the community until his death in 1691. While in the community he worked most of the time as a helper in the kitchen; it is in this specific surrounding that he became known for his simple, practical faith. Originally published in French as La pratique de la prâesence de Dieu.
"God is with us." We say this in our sermons, prayers, and songs, but what does it really mean? For many Christians, the whole notion of God's presence remains vague and hard to define. Exploring both the Old and New Testaments, professor J. Ryan Lister seeks to recover the centrality of the presence of God in the whole storyline of Scripture—a theme that is too often neglected and therefore misunderstood. In a world that longs for—yet struggles to find—intimacy with the Almighty, this book will help you discover the truth about God's presence with his people and what his drawing near means for the Christian life.

The nature of knowing God Dr. Baillie describes as "a sense of the presence of God." He develops the subject touched upon over twenty years ago in "Our Knowledge of God" by taking account of the logical positivist, linguistic analytic and existentialist movements in philosophy as well as of the great names of Tillich, Barth, Bultmann and Kraemer. The quite fundamental issues which the discussion raises for philosophy and theology as well as for personal faith are treated here with all Dr. Baillie's wide knowledge, sympathy with opposing views and clarity of exposition, the whole thing being informed by a deep Christian faith.
