Book Description

September 2005
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 17th-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 17th-century wisdom and remixes it into a 21st-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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Quotable, Simple, and helpful at reminding us GOD IS HERE!, March 4, 2006
By 
Benjamin J. Snyder "Ben" (Toledo, OH United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: God Is Here: Connecting with Him in Everyday Life (Paperback)
Steve Case takes the classic of Brother Lawrence and The Practice of the Presence of God and remixes it to a new tune.

One of emerging themes of Christian literature is the remix of "classics." The fear is that the depth of meaning and message is lost in the updated version. Case does not allow this to happen with Brother Lawrence, in fact his last chapter on Gathered Thoughts (prayer) is a wonderfully presented way of approaching prayer throughout the day - giving simple examples and offering challenging questions regarding what to pray for. Without becoming trite, Steve Case offers simple applications, thoughts, and questions that I till carry with me, quote, and meditate on.


If you are looking for a fresh perspective on how you may increase the presence and focus with God, this is the book for you!

5.0 out of 5 stars For those desiring to live in the Presence of their Creator, August 30, 2006
This review is from: God Is Here: Connecting with Him in Everyday Life (Paperback)
this book makes the old classic that it is based on contemporary and relevant. the theme and the content are not new but have been ignored by many of us in certain denominations of our faith. Case does a great job expanding on the thoughts of Brother Lawerence. i found this book valuable enough to purchase it for 15 graduating seniors at our church.
