Hearing God

"The best book on divine guidance I have ever read. I recommend it highly." – Richard Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline
"This is simply the best book I've ever found on hearing God's voice. It does it all—with nuance, grace, intelligence and spirit." – John Mark Comer, author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry
How do we hear God's voice?
How can we be sure that what we think we hear is not our own subconscious? What role does the Bible play? What if what God says to us is not clear?
Dallas Willard's beloved classic Hearing God is designed to help you deepen your relationship with God by understanding how to communicate with Him. If you've ever found it challenging to discern whether God is speaking to you, this book will help you learn how to hear him as part of a deep and personal relationship with him.
In Hearing God, Willard answers questions like:

- Why do people say they hear God but so few can explain it?
- Does God really talk to people?
- What part does God's Word have in everyday reality?
- How do we learn to listen to God?
In this classic book, which now includes a foreword by James Bryan Smith, you'll gain rich spiritual insight into how you can hear God's voice clearly and develop an intimate partnership with him in the work of his kingdom. As you move beyond simplyseeking answers, you'll discover a greater life within the kingdom of God, where worship, adoration, and delight become central to your journey of faith.
