Sharing in God’s Presence means far more than “getting saved” and experiencing God’s blessing in our lives. As believers, his presence becomes a very personal part of who we are and what we do—God actually shares himself with us! The language that we use often fails to capture the depths of God’s nature penetrating ours, the fullness of his Spirit permeating our hearts, and the innermost infusion of his presence in our lives. But the truth couldn’t be more intimate: “The person who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with him” (1 Corinthians 6:17)! This book is an invitation to share in God’s presence by allowing God to share himself with you. God wants everyone to share in his embrace. As we accept our responsibility for prayer, ministry, and even revival, we share in the very precious dynamic of give and response that’s involved in an intimate walk with Jesus Christ. For a general readership, this book is a reworking of material from the second half of the author's academic work God's Absence and the Charismatic Presence.

Many Christians do not know the significance of the Tabernacle in their daily walk with God. Many of us do not understand the different aspects of the Tabernacle. Indeed, many of us are amazed at the specific details given by God for the construction of the Tabernacle. The Tabernacle was a carefully constructed, mysterious environment for the presence of God. In this in-depth study, we take a walk through the Tabernacle of God. The seals are broken to enable us understand the Tabernacle of God and the presence of God amongst men.

""Do not be afraid; I am with you"" is God's promise to Israel (Isaiah 40:10), and the first disciples of Jesus were comforted, strengthened and encouraged by his promise to be with them (Matthew 28:20). As Christians, we believe that we are continually in Gods presence not only as spirit but also in each and every person. This living faith is centered on the God-given dignity of each person and calls us to right relationships. Such relationships bring about the justice of Gods reign. Always in God's Presence is Patrick Jurd's second book of reflections and continues to demonstrate his enthusiasm for the gospel of Jesus Christ, first seen in To Strengthen and Encourage. The series of brief reflections is written for parents, teachers, clergy and other educators who want to draw out the best in young people so that they may truly live the gospel. The themes of his reflections are inspired by the Franciscan and Lasallian charisms and cover a variety of topics - discipleship, education, prayer, formation, spirituality, integrity, life choices, building relationships - in ways that are thoughtful, caring, gentle, inspiring, and above all, concerned to remind readers that they are constantly in God's presence. Patrick Jurd was born and educated in Parramatta. He completed a Science degree at Sydney University, before moving south to marry AnneMaree Eddy. They now have two adult sons. He taught for more than twenty-five years in Lasallian schools and it was the inspiration of the Lasallian charism that led to his writing reflections. He has over thirty years' teaching experience in Melbourne Catholic schools and twenty years' experience in faith leadership. Patrick is currently the Director of Faith and Religious Education at Ave Maria College, Aberfeldie.

I believe that it is important for believers to not only know God but to be taught the principles and the protocol of His presence. Encounter are predictable, men can be mentored into understanding the ways of the spirit and I believe that messages in book like this are not only serving as retreats but they are times provided by the spirit of God to allow us encounter the life, the power and the glory of God. I'm going to be sharing briefly and then we pray. I believe that so many people are seeking for the factors that make for the relevance of a man, of a person within the context of a generation, listen carefully, preachers here and there continue to seek for the various ways to access the power of God, to access relevance within the context of the generation, and here and there we've invented all kinds of formulas and methodologies attempting to touch the heart of God, attempting to touch the grace of God, to the end that we may sustain the ability to be relevant within the context of the generation, but some things we need to understand is that the dealings of God with men creativity is not required. You are not at liberty to invent the pathway that's make for your relationship with God, it is only when it has to do with your dominion upon and around the cosmos, that is when you will draw from the well of creativity.

“Every human being is destined for the glory of God. Your humanity thrives when fully immersed in the presence of the Lord.”

“We all know how easy it is to lose concentration and let our attention wander. It happens so easily, and far too frequently, this problem of inattentiveness. This also happens in the spiritual life. God speaks to us but we fail to recognise his voice, our minds are elsewhere, we are not attuned to his whisper. He wants to lead us and guide us, but we miss his gentle promptings. He is present all around us, yet we don’t register his nearness. This robs us of a greater depth in our relationship with him. The purpose of this book is to help you become more consistently aware of God; to train your ear to hear his voice, and your eye to see what he is doing; to grow and improve so you can serve God more effectively.” – Tony Horsfall, in his Introduction
