More DescriptionWhat happens when you stop reading about God and open yourself to an ever-deepening relationship with God? In What We Need Is Here, Roger Owens calls you to return to 7 basics, or "givens," of Christian spirituality: meditating on the Gospels, praying the Psalms, sitting with God in silence, receiving and responding to Jesus with the body, meeting Jesus in Holy Communion, finding Jesus at church, and spending time with the poor. Writing in an honest, accessible, and often humorous style, Owens shares insights from his own journey and the history of Christian spirituality. Return to the heart of Christian spirituality with him. It's simple, yet astonishingly complex: Jesus is enough. Jesus offers everything you need to flourish in your life with God.
