Presence (1914) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781120337306)

Presence is a book written by Charles Henry Brent and published in 1914. The book is a collection of essays that explore the concept of spiritual presence in the Christian faith. Brent, who was a bishop in the Episcopal Church, draws upon his extensive experience as a missionary and his deep knowledge of theology to offer insights into the nature of God's presence in the world and in the lives of believers.The essays cover a range of topics, including the presence of God in nature, the role of prayer in experiencing God's presence, and the importance of the sacraments in connecting with God. Brent also reflects on the challenges and struggles that can obscure our awareness of God's presence, such as sin, suffering, and doubt.Throughout the book, Brent emphasizes the importance of cultivating a deep and ongoing relationship with God, one that is grounded in a profound sense of awe and reverence for the divine. He encourages readers to seek out moments of stillness and contemplation in their daily lives, and to be open to the ways in which God may reveal himself in unexpected ways.Overall, Presence is a thoughtful and deeply spiritual book that offers readers a powerful reminder of the importance of cultivating a sense of connection with the divine in their lives. It is a timeless work that continues to inspire and challenge readers to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
