Description
Have you ever felt that your devotional life falls short of the ideal? Have you ever wondered how you can have an intimate, meaningful relationship with God when the demands of modern life make it all but impossible? Do you feel trapped and frustrated by a pattern of daily devotions which you find unfulfilling? The Nearest sets out to tackle these questions by challenging many of the preconceptions which have become entangled with the popular understanding of spirituality in western Christianity. By looking at prayer and devotion from a different perspective, Tim Ross shows how a fulfilling relationship with God is both realistic and achievable within the confines of your life right now.

What a refreshing book! If you struggle with your 'devotional life' (those who don't will probably lie about other things) you are in for a wonderful surprise. With profound Biblical insight, freshness, clarity, humor and practical help, Tim Ross has given the church a magnificent gift. You will find teaching here that will revolutionize the way you think about God and your walk with him. This book could change your life! Read it and give it to your friends. They will 'rise up and call you blessed', and you will do the same for me for having recommended it to you. (Steve Brown, Professor of Preaching at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida; the author of several books and a teacher on the radio program Key Life.) Tim Ross has successfully and entertainingly opened up a discussion that is long overdue. This can only benefit a church that is too often ridiculously nervous about examining the truth about what actually happens to people. (Adrian Plass, Writer and speaker with over thirty books to his name.)
