My very fine friend
and former colleague, Dr. Bill Bagents, has written an excellent new book entitled, Always Near: Listening for Lessons From God. Published by our friends at
Heritage Christian University, it's a collection of Bill's articles that I
believe will help each reader draw closer to the Lord. I was pleased and
honored to write the foreword. I hope you'll take a look at Always Near. You'll
be glad you did.

BOOK PROMO
Always Near shares one
self-confessed odd Christian’s ongoing efforts to hear and honor God in the
events of daily life. Bagents offers personal reflections that process events
and observations through the wisdom of Scripture. He invites us to join the
adventure of listening for subtle spiritual messages that both bless and challenge.
Always Near promotes
contemplation and spiritual formation. Occasionally, you’ll even find a bit of
humor.
Bagents writes from a
decidedly Christian perspective and treats the Bible with respect. These
devotionals flow from the conviction that God is all-wise and all-loving, and
the better we hear Him, the better we’ll live.
God is presented as
the most persistent teacher, who has more ways of gaining our attention than we
have of ignoring Him. Bagents acknowledges that God is more skilled at reaching
out than we are at resisting. He is better at teaching than we are at being
dense. And even when we’re seeking Him, God can surprise us with precious
lessons that we never saw coming. Always Near is an appeal to improve how we
hear God and to draw ever closer to His heart.
