Synopsis

Does your prayer life…uh…suck?===Award-winning author Aaron Ryan brings you "God Is Not Santa": a beautiful portrait of God's love for us as contrasted to that of, hmm, another certain gift giver.
Too often we can get all caught up in our Wish Lists and our wants and needs, deeply desiring the gifts more than The Giver, who gave us the greatest gift of all: His Son Jesus Christ. Part straightforward and part satirical, but never preachy, Ryan dives deep into what it takes to approach God with no conditions and no demands! After all, God is not Santa Claus!===Develop a better prayer life, a stronger prayer life, and one you can enjoy. Among the Christian books on prayer life available today, this one is a standout to draw you closer to God and help you appreciate both what God is, and what He is not. Enjoy your prayer life with this amazing and insightful book on approaching God properly.

Prayer should be intimate and celebrated as special without being demanding.......more
