Breaking the Surface: Inviting God Into the Shallows and the Depths of Your Mind

It is often one of the five senses that triggers a memory or thought. "Breaking the Surface," shows readers through personal examples and biblical stories how to use their five senses as a way of developing a more consistent, peaceful, and deeper relationship with their heavenly father. With a fresh approach of using "touchstones," readers will begin to recognize the usefulness of physical reminders as triggers to set their thoughts on God, and the things of God. Through each chapter readers will be encouraged to adopt personal touchstones; daily memory aides to help them in this process resulting in a deeper prayer life. As readers grow to understand how setting their minds on the things of God, they will experience a sense of renewal and peace. They will gain a deeper understanding of how to become 'living stones' that point the way toward Jesus and will be challenged to sort the precious from the worthless in their lives. Formatted as an individual read, it is also appropriate for small groups.
