If you want purpose and daily direction but can’t seem to find the right prayer to receive it, Jan Johnson offers a profound guide to deeper, more intimate prayer life. When the Soul Listens will guide you away from formulas and step-by-step prayer plans toward contemplative prayer, “the lifestyle that allows you to experience God’s presence.” Learn to find rest and guidance in God, opening yourself to God’s presence and direction through this practical approach.
Rich with insight on Christian prayer for both new believers and those who have followed Jesus for years, this book provides:
- An explanation for why contemplative prayer is critical to spiritual formation and listening to God
- Clarity on how stillness, meditation, and Lectio Divina play a role in hearing God
- Advice for overcoming common challenges like discerning God’s voice or being frustrated by his silence
- Discussion questions and personal exercises at the end of each chapter to help you apply the material
