A six-month devotional to explore what it really means to fully engage our hearts and lives with a very real, and very present, Jesus.
"Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith."
--Hebrews 12:2 NIV
In the spirit of the great devotionals like My Utmost for His Highest and God Calling, Alone With God inspires Christ followers to go authentically deep with God, challenging them through six months of daily readings to explore what it really means to fully engage our hearts and lives with a very real, and very present, Jesus.
Excerpt
"Sacredness is locked up within your human personality--a holy aspect that is as much a part of you as are your eyes or your hair. Even though you are fallen, even though you sin, you still bear a sacred image or "reflection" of God within your body and your soul. The image is made all the more sacred because it is unique. You reflect God's image in a particular way that no one else, in times past or present, could ever duplicate. And once you are gone, that unique reflection of God will die with you. No one will ever be able to recreate it again..."

This little devotional is loaded with simple, yet profound insights into
God's character and the amazing ways He relates to His beloved children.
Even though each day's reading is only a few short paragraphs, Warden's
masterful choice of words helps to illuminate many of the deep truths
contained in the Bible. Even though I often read through several days worth
of these devotionals, many of them are so compelling I have to STOP and take
time to chew on what I've just read! Warden is also quite skilled at
reflecting back these profound truths of God's word by drawing out their
application in my own life. This book is definitely not just for singles! I
think every believer will be challenged and encouraged by this book to draw
closer to God in both maturity and intimacy.

Great Book--I'd recommend it to anyone! Ranks right up there with My Utmost for His Highest.

Not just another "religious" feel-good devotional! Alone With God deals with real world issues in a way that that both challenges your thinking and refreshes your soul. Like the previous reviewer, I go back to it again...and again. :)

Rarely have I read a book that plumbs the depths of our humanity, while offering to us the truth that we can take Christ all the way into our souls without it seeming trite or like a quick fix that never has a lasting effect. I was refreshed and delighted by Mike's book, Alone with God. I go back to it again.
