Praise for Seeking God

We believe Dallas would have been deeply honored to see his voice included in this instructive blending of spiritual wisdom that seamlessly spans centuries, continents, and cultures. In Seeking God, the wisdom of Hudson, Willard, and Ignatius flows together in ways that resonate and harmonize to provide us with time-tested, grace-fueled practical steps we can take as we seek God.

--Jane Willard and Rebecca Willard Heatley, on behalf of Dallas Willard Ministries

This is the book I needed to read in this season. The wisdom of Ignatius has been part of my life for more than two decades, and I have explored Dallas Willard’s writing for about half that time. There is very little new to me conceptually in this book. And yet―Trevor Hudson’s extraordinary distillation and simple explanation has moved me. Hudson has a remarkable gift, true to his Methodist roots, of making things accessible to the person in the pew. I found my heart stirred and myself challenged in ways that took me to conversation with Jesus. I would heartily recommend this book to anyone who has chosen to commit their life to companionship with Jesus.

--Mags Blackie, PhD, spiritual director and author of Rooted in Love and The Grace of Forgiveness

This book cannot be read well all at once. Every page brings with it an invitation to encounter the risen Lord―the source of abundant, eternal life, which begins in the here and now. Drawing on the Exercises of Ignatius and the wisdom of Dallas Willard, Trevor Hudson invites us to experience for ourselves the power of the present Christ, who calls us by name and transforms our lives.

--Paul N. Anderson, professor of biblical and Quaker studies at George Fox University
