Zusatztext 91732490 Informationen zum Autor Dave Ferguson and Jon Ferguson Klappentext "God, if you're real, make yourself real to me." Each of us spends our lives on a journey toward God. Yet often our most deeply felt longings-for meaning, for love, for significance-end up leading us away from, instead of toward, our Creator and the person he made us to be. Finding Your Way Back to God shows you how to understand and listen to your longings in a whole new way. It's about waking up to who you really are, and daring to believe that God wants to be found even more than you want to find him. It's about making the biggest wager of your life as you ask God to make himself known to you. And it's about watching what happens next. Zusammenfassung God! if you're real! make yourself real to me.

“Even if you’ve never set foot in a church, you’ve probably heard someone say something like, ‘We’re all searching for God.’ But that search is not a one-way street. In their new book, my friends Dave and Jon believe that more than anything else, God wants us to find him. You need to read this book and rediscover the God who’s been searching for you, all along.”
 —Greg Surratt, Founding Pastor, Seacoast Church

“Sometimes we convince ourselves that people are hard to reach. We console our lack of spiritual fruit to a cultural malaise of all things spiritual. Dave and Jon Ferguson have another idea. They have somehow managed the incredible challenge to connect the dots of spiritual awakening in the culture and hearts of everyday people. Like expert craftsmen they have made what is incredibly hard into real life possibilities and strategies that seem easy! I've read Finding Your Way Back To God and have already considered buying a box so I can give it to all my friends and neighbours. You should too.”

“There is a constant gap in our lives between where we are and where we want to be.  For years, I’ve longed to have a map to help me close that gap.  This book is an answer to that longing!  It’s a spiritual GPS to help you find where you are and to help you get where you’re going.  It can help you find your way back to God over and over and over again.  This book isn’t just for people seeking God for the first time—it’s also for anyone who wants to continue to get closer to God year after year.  If you took the classic, “The Pilgrim’s Progress,” boiled it down into the main principles, and added modern-day stories,  you would have this book in your hands.  It’s that good!”
