Enjoying God: Experiencing Intimacy with the Heavenly Father

This book has helped bring me closer to a personal understanding of God's love for me than any book except the Bible. The very keen spiritual diagnostics really help a person who has been hurt or who has just not broken through to the joy of knowing that God really, really loves ME! I am buying it for friends and family.

Enjoying God was so good I couldn't put the book down. It spoke into me the relationship that we strive to have with our Father and don't really know how to acheive it. S.J. has broken this down in simple understanding that we will know how to get the relationship we want, just being quiet and listening to Him instead of a work metality or look at me attitude. Nothing we can do, say or pray can make the Father love us more. It is a must read book for anyone wanting a closer walk with God, and understanding His unconditional Love for us. Thanks to S.J.for this book.

This book is a "religion" killer! By "religion" I mean the stale deadness of what the world calls Christianity. (...) The message in this book will set you free from the stale traditions and legalism that has so infiltrated the church and tried to dictate your life with the Lord. (...) This book is full of grace and truth that will lift you out of the muck and mire of striving to "please God" into a new dimension of intimacy where it's so easy to just bask in His love and "Enjoy" Him forever! There are levels of intimacy with the Lord beyond your imagination and this book is a sort of doorway into this new and refreshing dimension of relationship with Him.

This is a great book for the youth of today, who so need the love of the Father. It gives a wonderful teaching on how much God loves each person. As a Christian it helps bring out a right view of holiness. It greatly shows the heartbeat of God through Jesus dying on the cross. God hates sin because of the destruction it brings on the human race and more importantly because it keeps people from being close to him. But he loves everyone so much and wants a close relationship with every one so much, that Jesus took the penalty of every sin any one has ever done and will do, in order to put the guilt of every human being willing to call on his name upon him self, to exchange a love relationship with him and his father to those who are God's children as a result of completely giving there lives to Jesus. As a young man of 25 getting started in life, I am encouraged by how much fun and enjoyment I can have over saying no to temptations that I face like sex before marriage and all kinds of stuff and saying yes to Jesus and all he wants to give me in life. This book encourges me that holiness is not outward, it is having the love of God inward, that is so much deeper then a bunch of rules and regulations. This book cut me to the core on the true reasons as a teenager on why I messed with drugs, alcohol and some other trash that I don't need to mention that Jesus has so cleansed me of through his love. It brings out how when I called on Jesus five years ago, he did much more then clean me up, he filled me up in my heart with what I was lacking and searching for in all the wrong places. This insight that the book gives about the love of the Father has healed me inside in ways that words may cheapen and icreased the freedom that began in my life through Jesus five years ago and just keeps getting better. A great book for those who want to know the heart beat of Christianity.
