Publisher's summary
DISCOVER THE SECRET LIFE OF SIMPLE SPIRITUALITY...
Entertaining and enlightening more Christians than any other book of the past three hundred years, Brother Lawrence's timeless classic finds new life in this vibrant and faithful adaptation. Join the millions of readers/listeners growing a nonstop awareness of God through the life and wisdom of a humble cook.
_________________________
"The writings of Brother Lawrence are the ultimate in simplicity; ideas woven like costly threads to make a pattern of great beauty." - A.W. Tozer, author of The Pursuit of God
In today's culture of hustle and hurry, we often push prayer to the margins of our busy to-do lists, leaving us dry and burnt out. This unparalleled spiritual classic offers the solution to our problem–but not in the way we might expect.
Written by an uneducated cook after many years in the kitchen, this book advises us not to change our daily duties to make them more "holy." Instead, it encourages us to experience God in the midst of our mundane days, giving simple, practical insight into the joy of holding a constant, never-ending conversation with our Maker.
Since its publication more than three hundred years ago, the message of this modest book has inspired millions of people seeking to realize a continual awareness of God. Among its legion of devotees is A.W. Tozer, who said, “(Lawrence) wrote very little, but what he wrote has seemed to several generations of Christians to be so rare and so beautiful as to deserve a place near the top among the world’s great books of devotion.”
In today’s age of constant distraction and activity, we believe Lawrence’s message is more revolutionary and needed than ever and is primed to impact millions more in the coming generations.

Story
Brother Lawrence was a 17th century Christian who had a dramatic spiritual awakening at the age of 18. Seeing a tree in winter, his soul suddenly opened to the presence of God. Within six years he had entered a Carmelite monastery in Paris, where he worked chiefly in the kitchen, cooking and cleaning. He practiced a simple and natural method. He merely turned his attention to the Divine Presence available at all times during any activity. He reports that he was as fully present with God while washing dishes in the kitchen as he was when partaking of the sacrament in worship.

We are constantly being formed by the world around us. To be formed by Jesus will require us to become his apprentice. To live by what the first Christian disciples called a Rule of Life—a set of practices and relational rhythms that slow us down and open up space in our daily lives for God to do what only God can do—transforms the deepest parts of us to become like him.

The way to perfection is simple - to unite one’s will with God’s, putting into action the prayer “Thy will be done". In this precious short work, Uniformity with God's Will, St. Alphonsus Liguori explains the importance of conforming one’s will to God’s and how to do so; how God is glorified by our resignation to his will even more than by our acts; how to gain peace of mind and serenity by trusting in God, accepting what he wills for our lives, and following his commands.

These are the words or sayings (Apophthegmata), of various monks (the abbas, i.e. fathers) who lived in the deserts of Egypt between 250 A.D. and 400 A.D. They cover topics such as love, poverty, fasting, humility, and prayer, and there is usually a short story that gives the context of the sayings. These sayings are one of the few surviving records of the first monks such as St. Anthony the Great and St. Pachomius, who followed a strict way of life. Their sole aim was to draw closer to God through their labours.

Picking up where he left off in his electrifying Letter to the American Church, Eric Metaxas renews and deepens his call to believers not to “practice” their faith but to live it—heroically and with joy. Invoking famous but misunderstood words of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, he shows that God’s answer to evil is “religionless Christianity”—the rejection of religiosity and the embrace of a living and active faith, one that consumes the whole person and affects every aspect of his life. The awakening of this faith will bring revival, a “new birth of freedom,” and a renaissance of Christian culture.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Story
The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

Story
Brother Lawrence was a 17th century Christian who had a dramatic spiritual awakening at the age of 18. Seeing a tree in winter, his soul suddenly opened to the presence of God. Within six years he had entered a Carmelite monastery in Paris, where he worked chiefly in the kitchen, cooking and cleaning. He practiced a simple and natural method. He merely turned his attention to the Divine Presence available at all times during any activity. He reports that he was as fully present with God while washing dishes in the kitchen as he was when partaking of the sacrament in worship.

The narrator’s delivery of Brother Lawrence’s letters and instructions
At times it seemed it was Brother Lawrence speaking. This small but powerful book on Practicing the Presence of God has given me the direction I have prayed for; knowing God intimately, to know Him as He knows me. The book is easy to understand, delivered beautifully. I have ordered the book to be able to
See the points in the later part of the book. The book itself could be used as a meditation devotional - each chapter super short and easy to grasp. Highly recommend.

There is No Formula to a Closer Relationship
I have read this book several times, at different points in my life. Each time I have absorbed something new. This is a short and easy read, but Northcutt suggests in his preface that we read it slowly and ponder small amounts at a time. That would be my suggestion, as well. This book is a compilation of letters and conversations that can easily be pondered one at a time. As part of the Modern Saints series, Northcutt has taken this already enjoyable book and converted some of the phrasing and terminology into modern prose that is relatable to our current day life, while not losing any content. Brother Lawrence has much to offer a 20th century follower of Christ. Not only is his faith and relationship with the living God enviable, but it is also affirming. His approach to getting closer to God was to constantly BE with Him and recognize that every action, whether for work or play, should be done for the glory of God. He didn't suggest a 10 point formula or list of rules to follow, but confirmed that a closeness to God can be obtained by just drawing closer. Easier said than done, but so good to hear! I highly suggest owning this book and reading it every few years, if not more often! Having this book also in audio format has added a new way to enjoy this book. I look forward to more of the Modern Saints books being released with audio editions!

Simple, but Impactful
Northcutt does a great job of putting Brother Lawrence's simple but insightful message into today's words. The message can be life changing. I enjoyed listening and pondering. (Bro. Lawrence would approve.) Northcutt narrates in a relaxing voice that encouraged me to digest what I was hearing. I enjoyed it!

Life Changing
I love how simply Brother Lawrence explains how to practice God's presence. If you've picked this book up it's probably because you're craving closer relationship with God. Brother Lawrence says that God will answer this prayer and teach us to do this through Holy Spirit. I'm so thankful for this modern translation. I originally tried to read it in its original text. I couldn't understand it at all. Some might be able to, but not I. I love this book and I'm getting ready to listen to it for the 3rd time. Like the Bible you can hear new things each time you listen to it. I highly recommend this book!
