Books like The indwelling life of Christ by W. Ian Thomas

A guide to a deeper, more spiritual life in Christianity that emphasizes the power of the spiritual disciplines.

This book, with deep reverence for its subject, takes readers along on a journey of consideration to discover the deeper meanings of the Christian life. "This book is simply written and will be of much help to new converts and defeated Christians in starting them off to a victorious spiritual life." -- Bibliotheca Sacra "Major Thomas points out how many dedicated people, ministers, Sunday school teachers, and the like, have come out of the old life but never gone on to the full, joyous life in Christ. He writes with fresh insight into many Bible passages, and challenges Christians to walk on and take the victory that is already won." -- Faith at Work ". . . a very inspiring and helpful book." -- Baptist Standard "This is one of the most helpful treatments of a neglected subject which has come to this reviewer`s attention." --The Baptist Bulletin ". . . the author evidences keen insight into the definition and activity of the two natures of the believer and the path to victory. This path is explained with refreshing theological objectivity." --The Sunday School Times "A deeply spiritual study of the doctrine of the indwelling Christ. . . . Complete surrender is our need that Christ may live through us. We found the book helpful and enriching." -- The Southern Baptist S.S. Board

Two works of art---Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling and a series of books called 'Where's Waldo?'---both highlight the idea that God is closer than we think, emphasizing the importance of our efforts to connect with Him.
