Description
I'm longing for God... * to answer my prayers * to forgive me * when my heart has grown cold * to take me deeper * to display his glory * to take me home The latest in the popular Keswick study guide series matches the banner theme of Keswick Convention 2019: Longing for God. Seminars, Bible readings and evening celebrations will be tightly focussed around this topic. As in previous years, we want convention-goers and those who don't benefit from Keswick to explore the subject at home, on their own or in a group setting. For the latter, there are leaders' notes on the six standalone sessions. You can find out what the Bible says and what it means in your life, and be encouraged through praying the prayers and digging deeper. As you interact with this resource, you will find yourself equipped to face life's challenges though knowing the God of the Bible better. We pray that your longing will be satisfied.
The latest in the popular study guide series: Longing for God in six different contexts of life, all of which will resonate with Christians everywhere today

Our hearts so easily go astray. We desire things that aren't good for us - we over-desire things that are - and, in the process, we all too often lose sight of the God who deserves our all. In these six clear and accessible studies, we are called to re-orientate and begin to re-enjoy God in all his glory. Whether we're studying alone, with a friend or in a group, there is a wealth of Scripture here to help us long for our Saviour - and keep on longing - until that day we are perfectly fulfilled in him. -- Helen Thorne, Director of Training and Mentoring at London City Mission, author, trustee of Biblical Counselling UK
God has made us for more than just this world; but sometimes our desires can feel overwhelming or even wrong, and indeed they may be wrong. In this Keswick study guide, Elizabeth considers some of our God-given longings and shows how only he can satisfy them. Suited for individual or group settings, the studies are rich in biblical truth as well as practical application (with helpful leader's notes and further reading). They're short but powerful and will minister to both your head and your heart. -- Emma Scrivener, author, speaker, blogger
A Christian is not one who has stopped all sinning but is one who has begun to feel a new longing - for the Saviour. A heart that desires Jesus is alive and growing. As Augustine taught us long ago, 'Yearning makes the heart deep'. So our theme at the Keswick Convention 2019 is wonderfully profound and this study guide can help us all go deep. -- Ray Ortland, author, senior pastor, Immanuel Church, Nashville, Tennessee
