The most readable version of The Practice of the Presence of God available!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 modern, easy-to-read translation. Join the millions of readers 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 GodIn 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. To ensure this book continues its immense influence, we at Modern Saints have breathed new life into the classic text, writing a faithful, fresh adaptation based on a popular English translation dating back to the late 1800’s. Our goal was to create the book that would have been published had it been written in the 21st century. Here are the three basic ways in which this book was adapted:Sentence structures and vocabulary were altered to better suit modern readers,Paragraphs were broken up or consolidated for clarity,And, while nearly a word-for-word translation, short bits of text were added or removed intermittently to help the flow of reading. The result of these adaptations is a fun and fresh reading experience void of needless struggle, allowing you to focus not on wading through archaic language but on contemplating the depth of Lawrence’s wisdom.
