Radiating with joy--this is how we're meant to live.
I know I should read my Bible and pray every day, but I'm just not consistent.
For many Christians, "daily devotions" and "spiritual disciplines" strike guilt and shame in our hearts. But what if we got it all wrong? What if our Christian experience hinges not on perfect spiritual disciplines, but on the perfect love of a Father who delights in us?
In Delighting in Jesus, Bible teacher Asheritah Ciuciu invites you to lift your gaze from your to-do list and get to know the One who spun the stars and knows you by name.
Discover the theological foundation for how we were Created for Delight. You'll see that throughout Scripture, joy originates from God, pulses at the heart of the gospel, and is promised to us as fruit from God's Spirit.
By considering three Robbers of Delight, you'll trade those things that steal your joy to receive Jesus' personal invitation to a life of joy with Him--not just someday in heaven, but starting here and now on earth!
Finally, you'll learn five practical Rhythms of Delight: joyful practices found in Jesus' own life that increase our awareness of God's presence with us, His delight in us, and our continual communion with Him. Forget about rigid formulas--these creative ideas will fit the rhythm of your modern life and lead to freedom to connect with God right where you are.
If you're weary or disheartened, this book is for you. Come and drink from God's river of delights and find in Him the desires of your heart.
