The Voice of Jesus: Discernment, Prayer and the Witness of the Spirit

Gordon T. Smith

4.2/5 ( ratings)

Jesus takes it for granted that we will hear his voice. But how do we hear it? How do we separate it out from the cacophony of other voices we hear everyday, including those of our own desires? Is our experience of Jesus' voice something purely subjective, or is it something we can talk about with others and have them confirm? Building on the rich spiritual tradition that spans the diversity of history and theology from Ignatius Loyola to John Wesley to Jonathan Edwards, Gordon Smith opens our ears and hearts to the depths of the inner witness of the Spirit. By learning to attend to the Spirit, Smith urges us, we will learn to hear and heed the voice of Jesus in everyday life. Written with warmth and wisdom, this book speaks to the mind and heart of every Christian who longs for a closer, more intimate walk with Jesus.
