Description
Here's how-in the life you already live-you can make time and space for God.
Godspace offers seven practices that help busy Christians pay attention to God. They help us align our sometimes messy daily lives with our spirituality. And they strengthen our most important relationships, giving our lives meaning, significance, and purpose. It's not holding a set of beliefs, reading the Bible, going to church, or even praying that determines how we connect with God. It's our pace of life. When we live hurried and distracted lives, we miss the chance to experience the intimacy we desire with God. Experience God more deeply and live more joyfully by exploring these seven spiritual practices:
- Sabbath
- Hospitality
- Worship
- Simplicity
- Gratitude
- Generosity
- Critical thinking
With abundant wit, humorous anecdotes, and authentic sharing of her own joys and struggles, Keri Wyatt Kent guides us toward a deeper and more meaningful faith in the midst of our overcrowded, cluttered lives. A lay pastor at Willow Creek Community Church, where she has been a member for thirty years, Kent is the author of eleven books. She speaks at events and retreats around the country.

Advance Praise
“GODSPACE is at once deeply spiritual and handily practical. Through personal stories, biblical application, and tried-and-true wisdom, Keri Wyatt Kent’s book opens our hearts and minds to make space for God in the everyday.”
—Caryn Rivadeneira, author of Grit and Grace: Heroic Women of the Bible and Broke: What Financial Desperation Revealed about God’s Abundance
“GODSPACE is destined to become a spiritual classic, one of those books I keep on my shelf to reread and review whenever I need a spiritual boost. It is both inspirational and practical, encouraging and challenging. From the very beginning, Keri Wyatt Kent sets out to help the reader see “everyday life soaked with the presence of God”. She then demonstrates practical applications of spiritual disciplines in lovely, whimsical ways. A great book to study with others or give to anyone who yearns to feel the presence of God.”
—Dale Hanson Bourke, Author

I really enjoyed the idea behind this book and thought the cover was really cute. The book was filled with great ideas on how to spend more time with God and the importance of spending time building relationship with Him. However, it seems to be geared toward a younger audience than I was expecting...I was expecting something on a little deeper level.
