‘I was dying from the inside out and could envision nothing life giving, nothing energizing, nothing vital happening in my life. Ever. Again.’ Many of us can identify with pastor Kai Nilsen in this place of exhaustion and long to find a source of refreshment. This book shows us the way to the wellspring of the Holy Spirit. When we find the energy for creative life change in God, we discover the courage to
– say no to an addiction and yes to life
– gain new insight to how we are designed and linked to the web of creation
– forgive others and reconnect relationships
– participate in loving service with and for others If you are ready for renewal, then the life-giving spiritual practices in this book will point the way.
