Do you long for the presence of God?

Many people desire a deeper relationship with God but have no idea how to find it. The Bible seems overwhelming. Prayers seem unanswered. The bewildering landscape of podcasts, Bible studies, and sermons only adds to the confusion. Even long-term Christians often struggle to know God intimately and feel his presence.

You are not alone.

In Seven Pathways, Mary Carmen Englert guides you through the simple spiritual practices that lead to a deeper relationship with the Creator.

When a freak accident plunged Mary Carmen into a life of chronic pain, which now appears to be from a rare cancerous tumor-acinic cell cancer that was found during the editing of this book, she struggled to carry on a relationship with God. Yet day by day, she pursued him through the practice of gratitude. From there, God drew her closer through prayer, reading Scripture, song, and other simple spiritual disciplines. As her body struggles to recover, her spirit is strengthened to endure this journey and enjoy a renewed relationship with God.

Seven Pathways is a spiritual journey you can take, starting right where you are, to know God better and more fully than ever before. You will
