HAVE YOU HEARD?

Life shouts. God whispers. How can we hear God’s whispers when the struggles and worries of life distract us? How can we quiet our souls?

The Art of Spiritual Listening is about learning to listen to the gentle, persistent voice of God and help others hear God’s voice as well. With insightful and creative reflections, Alice Fryling guides us through Scripture passages that teach us how to experience and hear God more fully. Here you will find ways to:

·Become more attentive to God’s spirit
·Understand how to hear God’s voice in your own life
·Learn how to help others develop the discipline of listening to God’s leading

With an emphasis on spiritual direction, The Art of Spiritual Listening includes Bible study questions, prompts for personal reflection, and notes for leaders who wish to use the book in a group. If your life is too noisy to hear God, or if you want to hear his voice more clearly, The Art of Spiritual Listening will guide you to a deeper understanding of what it means to respond to God’s invitation to listen.

Best Starting Point for Listening Prayer

I found this book as part of a search for such a book for a Neighborhood Group (cell/home-group of our church). I read many on the topic and landed on this one. The feedback from our first group through the book has been phenomenal.

Great, thought provoking book. I highly recommend it. This is an excellent book for self reflection and/or for a small group leader to use in their group.

Learning how to respond to God

I’ve been reading this book slowly along with the scriptures and questions that go with it. I’ve found it deep, interesting, challenging and good for my soul.

As a spiritual director and writing workshop facilitator, I found many prompts that I could use. The tasks of a spiritual director are also laid out and I found several supportive and encouraging points to be called to this helping ministry. I'd have given a 5-star rating if the stance of how to listen "actively to the Spirit" were included in the book.

The Art of Spiritual Lostening

Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2012

Verified Purchase

The book arrived in good time, and although I bought it as a used book, it was in remarkably good shape. It is a book that is used for a discussion group, and it was fun reading the comments that the previous reader had made. The low cost of the book, plus being able to use Amazon points for shipping made it a super buy! It has been an altogether satisfying experience.

Another One Of Personal Preference

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2006

This is a workbook that Pastor (my husband) and I did together.

I think it's a very nice workbook however the lessons for each are rather long, so you'll spend quite some time with this workbook if you really take the time to ingest and digest and apply it to your life.

The author in this book even suggest in the response part of the book that "this make take two or three settings". And sometimes I found that best.

I feel if you really take your time with this, and really think about what the bible story said, and be honest with yourself about how you feel or relate to that and answer and break it down to smaller parts to where you can really get it. It's good.

This isn't a workbook you'd want to rush through...it really requires you to think and relate and answer. And Pray. That's one of the things I can honestly say this workbook made me do while we were studying it and completing it, is PRAY.

The bad thing about it is- it does have a bit of things where the author assumes you are already aware of or should know-and he doesn't take that into account a few times in the study. But that doesn't ruin the study.

SO-take your time with this one. This book has only 8 chapters but there is SO MUCH in this book- I reccomend spending at least a month on it so that you don't miss anything! And you don't feel rushed. Break the chapters in half for your study if it will make it easier for you.

Oh- there is a bit of big words here in the third chapter, but you are given a good explination of what, and how.

If you can preview this workbook before purchasing it, I would suggest that you do just to see if the preview interest you enough to purchase.

I would reccomend this workbook.
