Synopsis

Focusing on one of the most fundamental aspects of the Christian walk, John Owen delves into the heart of any healthy relationship - communication. Owen emphasizes how crucial it is to understand the Trinity and how the importance of communion applies to each person of God. Owen explains that in fully understanding the Triune God, it is clear that each part has a unique role and therefore encourages unique relationships and communication with believers. A healthy Christian life is grown through open communication and a dedicated connection with God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

The overall flavor of the book seems to be “It’s really that good folks” - Owen seems to clearly feel the impact of the benefits of communion with God, and I think he wants his readers to be equally aware so that they ca......more
