Synopsis
If you were looking for God, where would you go? 12 Days Out With God helps you reach beyond the complexities of life to spend time with God. This practical resource offers twelve inventive 'field trips' -- refreshing times for self-discovery and a deepening relationship with God. Each day-trip takes you beyond the walls of the church and out into the art gallery, the museum, the public garden, theme park, sports stadium, riverside and more. Like a personal travel journal, 12 Days Out With God shows that wherever you go, God wants to meet you there. Each adventure provides a spiritual aim, with tangible ideas to put into action. The unique format contains practical exercises, stories, questions, Bible verses, prayers and suggestions. There is plenty of room for recording your own thoughts and discoveries, as well as pages for mementos and keepsakes. 12 Days Out With God invites you to slip on your walking shoes, button up your coat and discover the God of history, the God of creation and the God of relationships. 12 refreshing excursions with God: 1.
