After all, it's widely accepted that the foundation of any good relationship is communication--and conversation with God often seems to be one-sided at best. We may long to hear his voice, but does God still talk with us today? Should we even expect him to?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSam Williamson gives us good news: God \u003ci\u003eis\u003c\/i\u003e always speaking--we've just never been taught how to recognize his voice amid the clamor. Williamson shares the secrets of finding God's voice everywhere--in Scripture, of course, but also in the checkout line, on the job, in a movie theater, and even in silence. He delves into what it really means to pray without ceasing, how we can brainstorm with God, how to discern God's voice from the rest, and how to hear God's voice for others--without letting your own feelings get in the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Williamson's characteristic candor and leavening humor, \u003ci\u003eHearing God in Conversation\u003c\/i\u003e bridges the gap between solid biblical theology and practical application. By the end, your eyes and ears will be opened to the limitless ways in which God speaks, and your relationship with him will have a firm foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"I picked it up out of curiosity and I couldn't put it down.\"--Eugene Peterson\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49572955095313,"sku":"GOR013625392","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49704932245777,"sku":"CIN0825444241G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49731482288401,"sku":"NGR9780825444241","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51416506859793,"sku":"CIN0825444241VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53150518903057,"sku":"GOR010265017","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0825444241.jpg?v=1751450644"},{"product_id":"is-sunday-school-destroying-our-kids-book-samuel-c-williamson-9781941024003","title":"Is Sunday School Destroying Our Kids?","description":"How do we make grace part of Christian living? Does Sunday School encourage discipleship and teach our children faith?\u003cp\u003ePeople in the world often reject Christianity simply because they can't distinguish it from mere morality.
