About this title

Synopsis

Do you long for depth and authenticity in your relationship with God?

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

If you are disillusioned, experiencing spiritual dryness, or simply looking for the next step in your spiritual growth, When the Soul Listens offers a clear path to a fulfilling connection with God.

About the Author

JAN JOHNSON enjoys speaking at retreats and conferences, hoping to ignite within listeners a burning desire to know God in an authentic way and to live out a kingdom life in the daily companionship of Jesus. Unwilling to minimize the mystery of God or the human struggle, Jan presents biblical principles and characters in down-to-earth ways so that people can connect with God and become more thirsty for God. Her observations about life's dilemmas give listeners a lot to study, ponder, and laugh about. As an author and spiritual director, Jan holds degrees in Christian education and spiritual direction (D.Min.), which along with many years of Bible teaching, have equipped her to write hundreds of published Bible study sessions. She is also the author of sixteen books and more than a thousand newspaper and magazine articles. Jan is the author of 13 books and more than 1000 Bible studies.
