Based on the life of Samuel, who first heard God's voice while still a small boy, and packed with practical examples from Priscilla's own life.

From the Back Cover
"When we approach God humbly and bow down before Him,
we put ourselves in a position to hear from Him."
Are you longing to hear God's voice but feeling disconnected?
God wants to speak directly to each of His beloved children-not to just a few "spiritual elite". Priscilla Shirer looks at God's call to Samuel and uncovers six characteristics essential for hearing from God:
¿ A simple RELATIONSHIP-unfettered by sin or pride.
¿ A single-minded WORSHIP-focused on God and His glory.
¿ A set-apart HOLINESS-determined to live a life that honors Him.
¿ A still ATTENTIVENESS-willing to be silent before Him.
¿ A sold-out HUNGER-passionately pursuing God's presence.
¿ A servant SPIRIT-submitted to God's call.
Her warmth and honesty, combined with a wealth of practical help, will inspire you to cultivate these traits in your own life. By doing so, you will prepare yourself to draw closer to Him and to hear His voice more clearly.

I just finished reading He Speaks to Me by Priscilla Shirer and it was wonderful! If you like Beth Moore, you will definitely like Ms. Shirer. Some books that I read like this often fizzle out towards the end and pack less punch, but this one only got better. I think I underlined half the book! I felt encouraged, comforted and convicted all at the same time and I very much look forward to applying this practical principles to my life. They are not new principles, but her directness and clarity really made it so real to me. I can also relate to her as she is a mom of young children as well! It is based on 1 Samuel 3. Very worth the read!

A group of women related only by neighborhood (not church affiliation or denomination, nor maturity in faith) are doing this study. It is a challenge for sure, but worth recommending!
The study focuses on why young Samuel heard the voice of God, and how we (particularly women) can be more directed and transformed by Him. The author is not afraid to get to your heart and ask tough questions.
Note: "hearing from God" is not charasmatic in this book, but it pushes the reader to dig into the word of God for true understanding and transformation. The "homework" questions are open-ended, rather than fill in the blank, but very manageable to do for a weekly study.
Hot public topics (wives submitting to husbands, homosexuality, legalism, and more) are in this study. This might present a challenge in group discussions, but don't shy away from it! Take the lead from the author and concentrate on your own heart, rather than the failings of anyone else, and you'll find true value in this book.
Our group has grown (in numbers, faith, and relationship with each other) during the course of this study.

Anyone who wants to "Hear the Voice of God", this book is truly a God sent! This book was used in a bible study that was dynamic! Excellent and I can't hardly wait for the next book! Pricilla Shirer by far did a excellent job in preparing and providing the necessary guidance in her book! Well Done!
