<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this updated and expanded edition of Willard's beloved book, readers will gain rich spiritual insight into how to hear God's voice clearly. Including new material from Willard and reformatted for easier reading, this classic is still one of today's premier spiritual resources.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> <strong>Being close to God means communicating with him--telling him what is on our hearts in prayer <em>and</em> hearing, and understanding what he is saying to us.</strong> But how do we hear God's voice? How can we be sure that what we think we hear is not our own subconscious? What role does the Bible play? What if what God says to us is not clear? The key, says bestselling author Dallas Willard, is to focus not so much on individual actions and decisions as on building our personal relationship with our Creator. In this beloved classic, you'll gain rich spiritual insight into how we can hear God's voice clearly and develop an intimate partnership with him in the work of his kingdom. <em>Hearing God</em> is now available as part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press. A new companion Bible study guide with contributions from Jan Johnson is also available.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>The best book on divine guidance I have ever read. I recommend it highly.</p>--Richard Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline<br><br><p>Willard wonderfully encourages us to listen for God's voice, and then to respond and obey. This is a book of great encouragement and helpful insights into the arena of God's direction in our daily living.</p>--Ted W. Engstrom, president emeritus, World Vision<br><br><p>This is simply the best book I've ever found on hearing God's voice. It does it all--with nuance, grace, intelligence, and spirit. Few things matter more to an apprentice of Jesus than learning to discern God's voice. Few books come close to being as helpful as this one.</p>--John Mark Comer, author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry<br><br><p>I have loved this book since it was first published under its original title, <em>In Search of Guidance</em> (my old, marked-up copy is still a cherished possession), and then I fell in love with it again when it was brought out under its current title. There is no one more sane, more well-reasoned, more deeply spiritual and biblically grounded than Dallas Willard in his careful, nuanced treatment of how we can develop an intimate, conversational relationship with God--one that actually includes hearing from God for ourselves. <em>Hearing God</em> is truly a classic that stands tall in the crowded field of discernment literature!</p>--Ruth Haley Barton, founder of the Transforming Center and author of Invitation to Solitude and Silence<br>
