CLOSE: Draw Near
Life has thrown us all for a loop a time or two. We were handed something that we never saw coming. Bang! Out of nowhere, it just happened, and we were totally caught off guard. Knocked down for a minute or so, we were left flailing, not knowing where or who to turn to. Our world was suddenly turned upside down and inside out, and we couldn't move; nor did we want to.
But even though we were not moving, time continued on, and we began feeling incrementally better. Eventually, gradually we came out of it, mostly intact, but we came out of it differently than when we went in. Now, when we look back we find that often the anxiety or suffering we felt during that time actually helped to propel us to find a way--a new way--to go on. We found ourselves on a truth-seeking path.
But, just as we were about to be content on the path of improvement, we realized we were in the process of real transformation. We had been drawn CLOSE. The whole process can feel chaotic, explosive and confusing, but, at the same time, soothing and elegant. If you can identify with what I'm saying, then good for you. If you're in an upside-down process right now, then I believe this book can help you.

What readers are saying:
This book is a phenomenal work! I was definitely intrigued by the subject and so captivated by the author's unique writing style that I read the entire book over the course of two days. The author's creativity in crafting this story is like no one else out in the market. The level of sensory detail he provides creates a portal for the reader to step through and directly into the story. With each line that I read, I felt as if I was also a character in the story witnessing the events firsthand. This book transcends fixed genres and provides a myriad of seeds which will sprout new growth into everyone's life who reads it. It is a bestseller and I would definitely recommend it for all audiences!

"Close "Draw Near is a very intimate work that pulls your personal emotions, your spiritual self, and your heart toward the Lord. Your ability to put these very compelling moments into words can best be described as remarkable. This writing flows through you with ease ,yet captivates your mind, all the while provoking deep self reflection. They are a blessing to anyone who will take time to truly hear their message. The deep unconditional love and faith that is possible between ourselves and our Father, as well as with each other are staring at us on every page. I pray that people everywhere will read this work, and know that the Author is a man who lives each day as an example to all of us of how to become "Close". I am humbled and very grateful to have had these words to motivate me to continue to strive to do the same.
