{"product_id":"006066326x","title":"Making All Things New: An Invitation to the Spiritual Life","description":"\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the past few years, various friends have asked me, 'What do you mean when you speak about the spiritual life?' Every time this question has come up, I have wished I had a small and simple book which could offer the beginning of a response. I have felt that there was a place for a text that could be read within a few hours and could not only explain what the spiritual life is but also create a desire to live it. This feeling caused me to write \u003ci\u003eMaking All Things New\u003c\/i\u003e... \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe beginning of the spiritual life is often difficult not only because the powers which cause us to worry are so strong but also because the presence of God's Spirit seems barely noticeable. If, however, we are willing to live a life of prayer and practice the disciplines of solitude and community, a new hunger will make itself known. This new hunger is the first sign of God's presence. When we remain attentive to this divine presence, we will be led always deeper into the kingdom. There, to our joyful surprise, we will discover that the power of our worries is weakening and all things are being made new. \u003cbr\u003e- -from \u003ci\u003eMaking All Things New\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e J. Keith Miller \u003cp\u003eI think Nouwen has written a marvelous little book on helping people to walk quietly into the presence of God and begin to hear with a more sensitive part of their ears. I will recommend this book to anyone who wants to have a closer and more personal relationship with God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReligion \u0026amp; Spirituality\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Age \u0026amp; Spirituality\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eInspirational\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"HarperOne","offers":[{"title":"Used - Very Good","offer_id":45262846656702,"sku":"006066326X-3","price":18.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":46670689992894,"sku":"006066326X-4","price":3.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/51nTcE-HguL.jpg?v=1754103505","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/006066326x","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
