Praise for Closer Than Your Skin

"Warning: Susan Hill has written a deceptive book. It looks like another woman-with-a-fragile-marriage-struggles-in-her-relationship-with-God book. Yet her life and spiritual experiences become compellingly honest and transparent."
-Cecil Murphey, co-author of 90 Minutes in Heaven, Heaven Is Real, and more than 100 other books.

"Over the last sixty years I have read numerous works on Christian spirituality. But I must say that Susan Hill has made the best case I've ever read for intimacy with God. It is biblically sound, psychologically real and personally honest. I've never heard any theologian or Bible teacher portray the true intimacy with God as Jesus promises in the relation of the branch and the vine (John 15:1-9) as powerfully as Susan does. I think this is the book that millions of Christians have been waiting for!"
--James W. Tharp, founder and president of Christian Renewal Ministries and author of Revival Must Come! and The Spirit of Prayer.

"Susan's book will lead the reader on an interesting journey of discovery and clarification. She is right about life with God being adventurous and breath-taking. Writing with a vulnerability that allows the light of God's grace to shine through real life situations, she presents God's way as both beneficial and desirable. She leads us through her ideas with anticipation. It will help people clarify the real issue of living with God. I read it for interest and edification and I was not disappointed."
-Dudley Hall, founder and president of Successful Christian Living Ministries

"Some books argue that God exists. This book gives us His address. Some books tell us about Him, this book shows us what He looks like. If you've ever wondered if there's more to the Christian life, Susan Hill doesn't just assure us that there is, she hands us a roadmap, and shows us how to get there."
-Phil Callaway, popular speaker and bestselling author

"As a Christian, my journey with God often seems more like working for a demanding employer than walking hand in hand with my first love. Susan Hill's book was a refreshing reminder that it is the latter and not the former that the Lord desires of me. Her stories take you to the feet of the Father of Love to encounter for yourself His incredible kindness. I hope as you read this book you too can discover why the 'nearness of God is our good.' (Psalm 73:28)"
-Jimmy Needham, recording artist, Inpop Records

Reseña del editor:

If you crave the real experience of God’s presence in your daily life...

If you sense there’s more to Christianity than service, study, and superficial spirituality...

If you’re ready to go beyond knowing about God
to truly knowing Him...

Here’s where life with God begins.

Is God really like a father who cares about the details of our everyday lives? Then why does He often seem so far away, distant in the moments when we could most use a personal touch from Him?

So many of us have lived in that unspoken longing. In these incredible stories, you’ll see how one person found that God is not always content to wait for us to discover Him amid the clutter of life. Instead, when we simply hold out our hands, He illuminates our ordinary world and gives us new eyes to see.

Closer Than Your Skin traces the journey of an ordinary Christian who longed to move beyond the trappings of faith to genuine life with God. Her story reveals how to overcome the obstacles that most often block such intimate connection. Through this remarkable account, you’ll gain tangible insight into what a daily, vibrant companionship with the Creator really feels like once you wake up to the eternal reality all around you.
