Experiencing God

Experiencing God is a book, originally published in 1994, written by Henry Blackaby and Claude King.

The book became a best seller and the teachings were expanded into Bible studies, devotionals, and other media.

The central premise of the book is that there are seven "realities" involved in experiencing God:

1. God is always at work around you.
2. God pursues a continuing love relationship with you that is real and personal.
3. God invites you to become involved with Him in His work.
4. God speaks by the Holy Spirit through the Bible, prayer, circumstances, and the church to reveal Himself, His purposes, and His ways.
5. God's invitation for you to work with Him always leads you to a crisis of belief that requires faith and action.
6. You must make major adjustments in your life to join God in what He is doing.
7. You come to know God by experience as you obey Him and He accomplishes His work through you.
