About this title

From the Back Cover:

ENJOYING INTIMACY WITH GOD

“We cannot read the biographies or come within the orbit of great men and women of God, who so obviously enjoy intimacy with Him, without wistfully desiring to share such an experience. It is an incontrovertible fact that some Christians seem to experience a much closer intimacy with God than others . . . Are there secrets we may discover that would admit us to a similar intimacy? Our aim will be to answer that question.” –J. Oswald Sanders
