God-Soaked Life

Discovering a Kingdom Spirituality

God's presence permeates our lives and activities. His song of delight reverberates throughout all he has created. As we open our ears to that song, we hear the truth of the gospel spoken to our hearts: the kingdom of God has come to us.

Chris Webb, an Anglican priest and retreat house director, wants us all to enter into that kingdom and to experience its freedom. Written with verve, depth, and uncontainable joy, God-Soaked Life invites us to live in the reality of God's presence in our everyday lives. It's an invitation into the community of God's people, into fearless honesty about our own weaknesses and failures, into the daily experience of God through silence, Scripture, and prayer, and into a new life of love and service in the broken world around us. God's kingdom is not far away, a remote and future promise. It is here, now.

Practical and Inspiring

I'm reminded of the themes throughout Dallas Willard's Divine Conspiracy and the concept of kingdom/eternity NOW. Yet, Chris Webb's presentation seems more accessible, easier to digest. I appreciate the anecdotes both personal and historical. Plenty of scripture citations make this an ideal book for a group bible study/discussion. I highly recommend ... and the Christian Audio production/performance is excellent.

What a great book!

This book has been very compelling for me. I would say it was thought provoking but what it has provoked was something much deeper that the level of thought. I will return to this book many times to be reminded of its deep spiritual message.
