NEW BOOK: Abiding Dependence: Living Moment by Moment in the Love of God.

“I’ve known Ron for decades, and I’ve never had a conversation with him that wasn’t punctuated with laughter, thoughtfulness, and honesty....Ron’s faith is integrated into every corner of his life, from his family to the books he loves to the way he plays guitar solos. Abiding Dependence reads like one of those great after-show conversations with Ron, which go from banjo practice to scripture, from George MacDonald to fatherhood, from Narnia to The Lord of the Rings—and where I walk away resting in the truth that Jesus loves me.” -- Andrew Peterson, singer, songwriter, author of The God of the Garden and The Wingfeather Saga

From Moody Publishers: Our humanity is meant to be powered by the Breath of God.

You want to grow more deeply in your faith—to know in your bones the love the Father has for you. You want to know that even when life doesn’t seem to be going as it should, God is with you. You need courage for today. Strength and hope for tomorrow. Musician and artist Ron Block desires the same—for you and for himself.

To become who we’re meant to be requires a deeper experience of God Himself. Abiding Dependence shares forty days of meditations—a deep plunge into the beauty and richness of the Gospels. Block takes the reader through contemplations of Jesus as Son of God, Son of Man, Tempted Son of Man, Compassionate High Priest, Man of Courage, Reconciler, and more. The reader learns to live and breathe in the atmosphere of God’s abiding love.

Christians often try to add flesh-fueled effort to buttress their works and walk with God. Can you relate? This gives rise to all sorts of mistaken ideas about God and our relationship with him. Block helps us live and rest in Jesus. Seeing and knowing His love awakens our trust. Faith lights hope. And we all need a stirring of hope—one that does not disappoint. Block stirs in Christians a hope not just for a future someday but for this day, this hour, this very moment. Join Block on a soul strengthening forty days of Abiding Dependence!
