Come Away - Tapa blanda

. . . A practical, inspiring resources for those wishing to go deeper in their prayer lives.

In a world of one-minute Bible studies and instant messages, why would anyone be talking about day-long prayer retreats? The reason is, whether we realize it or not, we desperately need to spend time with God. (from the introduction) Most of us know we need to spend more time in prayer, but life bombards us with the tyranny of the urgent. When we do finally decide to slow down, we have no idea how to spend extended, meaningful time with God. Yet it is through these times with God that we gain a fresh awareness of our dependence on His strength. This practical guide offers the tools and encouragement to carry out a personal prayer retreat. It includes stories of both Bible characters and contemporary men and women who can guide us to new dimensions of intimacy with God.
