In Hearing God, author Benjamin Dixon explores what it means to hear the voice of God in our everyday lives through our devotion to God’s Word and our connection to the Holy Spirit. With Biblical clarity and practical insight, this book tackles a topic that is often misunderstood and confusing in the midst of a generation that truly wants to know if God is still speaking today.Hearing God will challenge you to study God’s word, deepen your prayer life and obey the voice of the Holy Spirit in order to bring about personal transformation and kingdom effectiveness.
This book is practical, concise, and easy to digest. The author doesn’t over complicate it. He provides great analogies for each biblical principle and gives personal testimonies on how he has walked this out in his own life. I would recommend to anyone who wants to start or go back to the basics.
A very practical understanding of what it means to hear God’s voice in our everyday lives through His Word and the Holy Spirit. It always has good insight on discerning the other voices outside of the Lord’s, and how we can proactively pursue God’s voice.
Amazing book done in a mens group. A focus on slowing down and hearing from God. How and where does He speak, what does He sound like, and knowing that sometimes He just wants to say “I love you and I’m proud of you.”
Hearing God is refreshing, inclusive, and applicable. Dixon dismantles the mystery behind the prophetic ministry in Christianity through the use of Biblically weighted Scriptural examples, Dixon's personal experiences in ministering prophetically, and participatory ministry which values every member of the Body of Christ. Dixon removes the superficial Hollywood like idolatrous worship of the prophetic, presents simplicity of methods for the church to replicate personally/corporately, and invites both new and veteran Christians to deepen their walks with Christ. Both the Christian and the skeptic will be confronted with the evidence of the continuation of the prophetic ministry. This book is a pivotal anchor in Christian literature and has produced countless fruit in multiple Christian denominations across the Christian spectrum. Glean the wisdom of this book and share it with your friends and family!
Ben Dixon lays out a logical, progressive study that takes any honest person into a realization of and plan for hearing and choosing to follow God's leading, His voice, His will. My wife and I are privileged to attend the church in which Pastor Ben often preaches as a staff member. He presented this book in a summer teaching series, and it has been wonderfully reinforcing to have both the print and the live input from him. But the book stands solidly alone as an invaluable aid to walking through a "tune-up" for being an effective child of God, furthering His kingdom, walking in His will.
I liked that this author used scripture to back up his points. He kept everything in context, used biblical and personal experiences, and made the lessons personable. It was easy to read, and the questions at the end of each chapter helped you contemplate what you read and make the lesson more personal. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to grow their relationship with God.
