Experiencing God :
Blackaby, Henry T., 1935-
Experiencing God : how to live the full adventure of knowing and doing the will of God / Henry T. Blackaby & Claude V. King. - Nashville, Tenn. : Broadman & Holman Publishers, [1998], 1994. - xvi, 288 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm
Includes bibliographical references.
Knowing God by experience -- Knowing God's nature -- Doing God's will -- Being God's servant -- Seven realities of experiencing God -- God is at work around you -- God pursues a love relationship with you -- God takes the initiative -- God invites you to join him -- God speaks to his people -- God reveals himself, his purposes, and his ways -- God speaks through the Bible -- God speaks through prayer -- God speaks through circumstances -- God speaks through the church -- God's invitation leads to a crisis of belief -- Joining God requires major adjustments -- Joining God requires obedience -- God accomplishes his work -- Closing remarks -- Appendix: Names, titles, and descriptions of God.
The authors' emphasis on revelation through personal relationship makes faith sound like a true adventure--leading believers to engage with people and circumstances they might otherwise have avoided. The organization of Experiencing God adds to this effect, proceeding step by step through the various ways a believer's relationship with God is deepened (via the Bible, prayer, and the Church, among others). Although there's strong tension between the self-help tone of this book and its hard-line argument that faith is purely a response to God's initiative, many readers will nevertheless find great encouragement in hearing a still, small voice among a vast number of everyday experiences.
