The Practice of the Presence of Jesus (Joni Eareckson Tada)
$16.95$20.00
Discover the joy of intentionally dwelling in the presence of God as the beloved author of Joni weaves contemporary insights with the timeless wisdom of seventeenth-century monk Brother Lawrence.
“Suffering has a way of heaving you beyond the shallows of life where your faith feels ankle-deep. It casts you out into the fathomless depths of God.” —Joni, from the Introduction
Brother Lawrence lived through the drudgeries of monastery kitchen duty during the turbulence of 1600s France. Joni Eareckson Tada suffered a terrible accident that broke her neck and left her paralyzed. This tragedy led her from a life of distant faith to a life as a devout Christian, and she later became a worldwide disability advocate and influencer, sharing her experiences of suffering with grace. In both their lives, they each found the secret to peace, joy, and a way of being in constant conversation with the Father . . . every day and every hour . . . practicing the presence of God.
The Practice of the Presence of Jesus ushers in wisdom from these two everyday saints, more than 400 years apart, to teach and inspire you to experience the nearness of God in your life. Through rich devotional content from Brother Lawrence’s The Practice of the Presence of God, accompanied by original art and never-before-published insights from Joni, you’ll experience a unique blend of past and present wisdom on such themes as humility, thankfulness, fear, worship, obedience, and more. Each devotion ushers you into the peace of the Good Shepherd.

Joni Eareckson Tada: Swimming Against the Tide
$8.99Joni Eareckson is now a well-known Christian speaker and author. But once, she was only a teenage girl, who loved the ocean — and who, in the plans of God, was about to suffer a life-changing tragedy. Her whole world was turned upside down one morning when an ordinary dive into the water resulted in a paralyzing injury!
From that day onward, Joni’s story has been hailed as a wonderful testimony to God’s grace and power in a young woman’s life, as she learns contentment with the providence of God, and to happily serve Him in whatever condition she is in. The miracle of healing was prayed for, but that didn’t happen, and now Joni’s ongoing work with thousands of disabled people all over the world has become the greater miracle God intended, in using His frail servant, who learned that “My strength is perfected in weakness.” (2 Cor 12:9)
