The present is more than a place where the past comes to rest.It is more than a staging ground for the future.The present is where God shows up.We live our lives in the present, but often our minds are racing toward the future or overwhelmed by the past. We want to change the past and control the future, but usually all we really do is exhaust ourselves in the here and now. Writing especially with church leaders in mind, Dr. John Koessler, a former pastor and professor, teaches you how to evade the tyranny of past regrets and future plans and meet God right where you are, in the present. Escape the tyranny of urgency and anxiety and learn to live fully present.You know how sometimes you arrive somewhere in your car and don’t remember anything about the drive? You were on autopilot. Well, it turns out most of us live a lot of our lives that way—moving from one task to the next, one email to the next, one day to the next, only half present and missing a lot. Practicing the Present teaches you to reclaim your everyday moments by engaging your ordinary present. Because as John Koessler points out, "It is the one who is fully in the moment and can be guided by the inspired intuition of the Holy Spirit that is best positioned for a breakthrough." Koessler studies the life, prayers, and teachings of Jesus in order to present you with a thoroughly biblical perspective on the practice of mindfulness.
