What distinguishes this Bible-prayer journal from others is the deliberate focus on God and His Word as the foundation of our relationship with Him.
In this insightful book, Frank Hasel gives practical suggestions, which are tried, tested and refined in the crucible of experience. Suggestions, which if applied will have the same transformative result, giving a richer more meaningful relationship with God. In simple, logical steps he teaches us how to pray for others in a more meaningful, effective and structured way, bringing blessing to both the person who is praying and the person prayed for.
It is a practical tool which will enrich, deepen and expand your understanding of the Bible and help you to remember and apply what you learn to your life.
This is not a book to sit on the shelf, rather a daily companion to be used and applied. I would recommend this to anyone who is willing to step out, try something practical and different and longs for a closer walk with God.
– Audrey Andersson, Executive Secretary, Trans-European Division of Seventh-day Adventists
Books about the Bible can sometimes be chiefly cerebral. With his years of experience as a teacher, pastor and theologian, my friend Dr. Hasel has written a striking interactive journal that weaves the logical hunger for truth with the inner desires of the heart. I especially like the many pithy quotes from great authors about the Word of God and prayer. Without a doubt, this will enrich the devotional life of all who embrace it.
– Doug Batchelor, Speaker/Director, Amazing Facts
Deep within the heart of every human being is a desire to know God. This inner hunger longs to be satisfied. Many people attempt to satisfy this hidden hunger through materialism, pleasure seeking, status or wealth. Frank Hasel’s book reveals that an intimate relationship with God is the only way to satisfy the aching longing of the human heart. But “Longing for God” takes us a step beyond merely telling us what we need, it shows us how to achieve it. This book is a journey to the heart of God revealing how to have a meaningful prayer life and a life changing study of the Word of God. May you be drawn near to God’s heart and understand His will for life more fully as you read these pages.
– Mark A. Finley, Assistant to the President of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
This book is a ‘Treasure Chest’ of inspiration and practical tips to deepen your prayer life and walk with God! In fact, once I started reading the prayer chapters at the end of each month, I couldn’t put the book down. This book has already challenged me to go deeper in my own prayer life. However, I appreciate that Longing for God is more than just inspirational reading as it is uniquely formatted in such a way as to help us read thru the entire Bible in one year. I highly recommend this book and will be sharing it widely. I know it will be a real blessing to many!
– Melody Mason, author of Daring to Ask for More
Finally, a simple yet profound resource to help us on our prayer journey with God! Like the Scottish cleric Robert M’Cheyne, the author encourages the reader to follow a balanced Scripture reading plan that reviews the entire Bible in one year. Meaningful prayer is a response to this encounter with the Living God in His Word. Test this life-changing resource for yourself and then share it with your family and friends!
– Derek Morris, President, Hope Channel, author of The Radical Prayer
This book is an amazing goldmine on how to have a relationship with God. It is filled with practical steps for enriching your devotional life that I have personally been very blessed by in my own experience. If you are feeling in a dry place spiritually, or you don’t know how to begin a relationship with God, or you are longing for a deeper experience with God, then this book is for you! It will motivate you and teach you how to study the Bible and pray! But more than just giving information about Bible study and prayer, the pages of this book engage you in a life changing experience that will lead you on into the very depths of the heart of God!
– Janet Page, Associate Secretary for Pastoral Spouses, Families and Prayer Ministries, Ministerial Association, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
Frank Hasel’s ‘Longing for God’ rejuvenated my prayer life. The simple honesty of his narrative and the practicality of his suggestions for heightened communion with God shone light into some neglected corners of my soul. If your heart’s cry is ‘Lord, I want to know you more,’ I strongly recommend this book.
– Cindy Tutsch, Associate Director (retired), Ellen G. White Estate
I am thrilled that Longing for God is now available in English. Having used this book myself (the German version), I can tell you that it will call you to a deeper, more reflective study of God’s Word that will help you internalize the precious truths found there and profoundly enrich your personal walk with God. Because of my own experience using this book, I see this as the perfect Christmas gift to share with family and friends of all religious persuasions who are longing for a deeper walk with God.
– Nancy Wilson

Time To Bloom
$20.99Add to cartThe Nielsen sisters have accomplished much in the past year, traveling west and settling in Nebraska. They are on their way to rebuilding their mother’s garden, and their excitement only grows when they receive a letter from their brother Anders saying he’s coming to visit with a friend from the war. However, none of that can mask their concern that they are quickly running out of money. Del’s work teaching in town offers hope, not only to support her sisters but also to better her students’ lives. Not all see it that way, though, with the town lagging on rebuilding the schoolhouse and her brightest student’s father demanding he work the farm instead of learn. An invasion of grasshoppers only makes things worse.When Anders arrives with his war-wounded friend RJ, he sees the strength of the sisters’ idea to start a boardinghouse with the train coming to town. He invests in it and suggests RJ build it. Del finds RJ barely polite and wants nothing to do with him. But despite Del and her sisters’ best-laid plans, the future–and RJ–might surprise them all.

John Chrysostom : The Preacher In The Emperor’s Court
$11.99Add to cartThere was something about John Chrysostom and the words he spoke that lit up his world.
He was an important leader of the early church, known so much for his preaching and public speaking that he was given the nickname Golden Mouth. He spoke his mind and followed his convictions. He refused to host the lavish social gatherings that his predecessors had laid on. This meant that John Chrysostom really annoyed the wealthy citizens of Constantinople. He spoke out against how many influential Christians cared little for the poor.“It is madness to fill your cupboards with clothing while other human beings stand naked and trembling with the cold so that they can hardly hold themselves upright.”
It didn’t matter if you were rich or poor John spoke the truth – emphatically. Even the empress fell under his criticism which eventually led to his exile and death.

Samuel Rutherford : The Law, The Prince And The Scribe
$11.99Add to cartWhen Samuel Rutherford picked up his pen he changed lives, maybe even across continents. What he wrote influenced the American constitution but where his real power and passion was felt was in the letters that his warm pastor’s heart wrote to the people of his parish.
His book Lex Rex was burned on a pyre but his notes of comfort and wisdom were cherished by those he cared to guide and counsel.
Accused of treason he died of illness before there was time to make him a martyr and on his gravestone today, just west of the Bell Tower in St. Andrews Cathedral are engraved the striking words that sum up his life, “Acquainted with Emmanuel’s Love’.
