My Thoughts-
I thought this book was an interesting read. I liked how Neil T. Anderson made this book about his current life as a caretaker for his wife and his growing closeness with God. I like being able to have a story that mirrors the rest of the text. It makes it easier to understand.
I appreciated the list of Bible verses about being accepted, being secure, and being significant for God. The list of resources was helpful. It would have been nice if there had been resources that weren’t written by or with him, but that’s okay.
I would recommend The Power of Presence to those who feel a desire to grow closer to God.
