INTIMACY WITH GOD: The Longing to Know Him More

What if the deepest longing of your heart is really a longing for God?Many Christians know a great deal about God. We attend church, read the Bible, pray, worship, serve, and believe the right things. Yet somewhere beneath all that activity, a quiet question can remain: How well do I actually know Him?After decades of following Jesus, preaching, teaching, leading worship, and serving in ministry, Dr. Richard Johnson found himself asking that question again. Not because he had lost his faith-but because he wanted more.Intimacy with God: The Longing to Know Him More is an invitation to rediscover what we were created for from the beginning: life with God.Beginning in the Garden of Eden, Pastor Rich traces a beautiful thread through Scripture-the God who came looking for His hiding children, the Jesus who invited ordinary people to come close, the Shepherd whose voice becomes familiar as we walk with Him, and the Holy Spirit who makes the presence of God a present reality.Along the way, Rich explores what it means to recognize God's leading without pretending every thought is His voice, to experience His peace while the storm is still raging, to remain faithful when God seems silent, and to abide in Jesus until His presence begins changing who we are.With warmth, biblical truth, personal reflection, and a touch of humor, this isn't a book written by someone claiming to have arrived. It is one longtime follower of Jesus saying to another: I want to know Him more. Come with me.Because intimacy with God isn't about becoming more religious.It is about falling more deeply in love with Jesus.Intimacy. Transformation. Impact.It all begins with one invitation: Come closer. He's already here.
