Open to God

Open to God by Joyce Huggett is published by Kevin Mayhew and is our 10406th best seller. The ISBN for Open to God is 9781844171408.

In Open to God Joyce Huggett addresses some of the 'barriers and blocks' to a deeper prayer life, offering practical guidance on how to prepare for prayer and find stillness, how to use the body and the imagination and how to enjoy whole days of prayer and meditation.

Open to God also includes 28 meditations that become a springboard for a closer encounter with God. These meditations are not for those who are looking for someone else to tell them what to think or feel. They are for those who are prepared to unearth for themselves the treasure that is buried in both the biblical text and their own hearts.

Most of the meditations place the spotlight on the events that preceded and followed the birth of Jesus. For this reason, they are ideal for use throughout the pre-Christmas and post-Christmas period. They are, however, best used not once but many, many times, at any time of year. Readers who return to them regularly are often surprised to discover that each time they meditate on a particular Gospel story, God uses it to show them a different aspect of the truth - the truth about himself, maybe, or the truth about themselves.

'An excellent book that encourages the reader to believe that it is never too late to start being open to God.' Gerard Hughes
