A Reformed Guide to Understanding the Ordinary Means of Grace · Enliven your worship and deepen your relationship with Christ · Experience God's provision through specific God-appointed practices · Explore the Word, sacrament, and prayer If you long to know God more intimately, experience God more intensely, and commune with God more closely, Harrison Perkins has good news. While many Christians are waiting on God to show up in extraordinary experiences, God is already moving in ordinary ways. These blessings are available to us in the God-appointed practices we find in a good local church--the Word, the sacraments, and prayer. With clarity and warmth, Perkins unpacks how each of these means of grace uniquely draws us into communion with Christ, shaping our worship into a life-giving encounter with God's grace. If you've been feeling disconnected, dissatisfied, or stalled out in your spiritual growth, maybe it's time to meet God where he already told us we'd find him. In church, surrounded by other believers, growing in grace together.
