Book Description

August 1, 2003
Using the imagery of the psalms as a backdrop, author Calvin Miller explores our hunger for intimacy with our Holy God. Insisting that the pathway to God's holiness is through a journey into our own selves, Miller yet maintains that our end is not to know ourselves but to know Christ. Our hunger for the Holy leads us to a table for two in a quiet wilderness. Here, Miller says, we meet as "ardent lovers in the lonely desert of the human heart. There, he speaks as much as we do, and even when both of us say nothing, we are rapt in a welded oneness."

In Miller's inimitable style, he graciously invites us to satisfy our hunger for the holiness of God as we meditate on the psalms and are challenged to know the God of the universe in a personal, intimate relationship.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enter The Presence of God, September 3, 2008
This review is from: A Hunger for the Holy: Nuturing Intimacy with Christ (Paperback)
This book came into my life at a very low time for me (my house had burned and that had ramifications financially, physically, emotionally and spiritually for me). With the help of this book I was able to come into the presence of God. God gave me comfort, assurance, and direction.
I became a fan of Calvin Miller. His other books that I have read since this first one have not disappointed.
