"In order to develop an intimate relationship with Jesus, we need to reevaluate our perception about the Holy Spirit," states author Tommy Almonte in his new release, The God That I Know: A Journey to Intimacy. Almonte chronicles his journey towards greater intimacy with the Holy Spirit and how the Holy Spirit radically transformed his life. He writes: "I have come to understand that the pursuit of intimacy in a relationship is like water or oxygen to our bodies. The desire and pursuit of intimacy keeps a relationship alive. As time passes by, intimacy in a relationship becomes the road map to a long and happy friendship and life." Written in an easy-to-read style, this book is formatted in six different sections, including a study guide that allows readers to go deeper into the concepts highlighted in the book. Among the many topics covered in The God That I Know: A Journey to Intimacy are: How to develop a relationship with the Holy Spirit The personality of the Holy Spirit Requirements for intimacy with the Holy Spirit What God expects from our relationship with Him About the author: Tommy Almonte is a native of the Dominican Republic. His family relocated to the United States when he was very young. Tommy has devoted his life to helping others develop a closer relationship with God, and he has developed curricula and classes for this purpose. He and his wife, Theresa, reside in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with their daughter, Sophia.

Countering scholarly tendencies to fragment the text over theological difficulties, this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume contends that Exodus should be read as a unified whole, and that an appreciation of its missionary theme in its canonical context is of great help in dealing with the difficulties that the book poses.

Questions concerning various topics such as knowing God's will, assurance of salvation, home life, and even dating relationships result from a lack in comprehending the Person of God the Father. Dan DeHaan puts God the Father back into the Christian perspective of what it means to live this way of life called Christianity in The God You Can Know. Burdened by contemporary Christians' lack of understanding of the nature of Almighty God, he wrote this book to help readers become intimate with God by studying His characters and attributes.

Where is God? Is He real? Look closely and you can see God's touch all over creation. Like the sun, God is warm. Like the stars, God is dazzling. Like the wind, God is all around, everywhere.

Children will discover that God never leaves their side, even if they can’t see or feel Him. Each page will help children understand the many things in the world we can't see, touch, or hear are just as real as God is. And even if God feels distant, He is real and He is near.

As the Biblical David lies on his death-bed he looks back on his own, crowded life and tells all.

When a young man begins to question how a loving God could allow the kind of sorrow and violence that exists in the world today, he turns to his father for answers. The God that I Know is one father's unique way of responding to his son's doubts about the nature of God. Through the use of verse, the young man's father acknowledges the existence of the problems that plague the world, including poverty, greed, war and death. But with inspired and soaring imagery, he explains that everything that happens is under God's control, and that the evil that exists is trumped by the love, forgiveness, and mercy that God has shown the world. This father's response to his son, and the beauty and thought-provoking nature of these modern psalms make this book one that all parents should give to their sons and daughters, and one which anyone in search of God should treasure and read over and over again.
