As Christians, we long for communion with the Lord. But in the busyness and routine habits of our days, we sometimes miss chances to meet Him and the fire inside smolders down to a mere glow. Author Anne Graham Lotz shares from personal journey that took her from burned out to blazing fire that you can experience too. Be refreshed from the encouragement you'll find in this book and get ready for a deeper relationship to be rekindled in your spirit.

Christians who feel they are missing something will wake up to how much Jesus loves them and passionately desires to revive their lives through a fresh commitment to holiness. A revived faith means a life totally dedicated to God and totally committed to the Word of God. Relationship with God takes first priority; service and mission flow from this deepened, intimate, personal relationship with God.

In this book, evangelist Lotz (Just Give Me Jesus) postulates that it's possible to do everything right-go to church, pray, read your Bible, be involved in ministry-and still lack a "fire of personal revival" in your relationship with God. Exactly what that fire is and how to find it are a bit unclear, although it appears to be a strong emotional pull combined with complete obedience to God. Lotz uses the experience of Isaiah when God appeared to him after King Uzziah's death as an example of revival (at times stretching that story to make it fit her points) and recounts the revival story of a friend who had a life-changing experience at one of Lotz's revival meetings. At times Lotz's reasoning is questionable, as when she assumes that any waning of spiritual emotion is evidence of sin, or suggests that every difficult circumstance is God's way of telling us to "wake up But there's some good basic information on living the Christian life, written with great enthusiasm.
