Summary

In the busy lives common to most modern Christians, God himself has a hard time breaking in. He's still there, always wedged in between work, appointments, school activities, and everything else that can crowd our daily calendars. Every Christian wants to spend time with God, but actually finding a space for Him-for daily prayer, reading the Bible, daily devotions-is a different matter. Joanne Heim has been through this struggle herself. It's easy to put off finding ways to make a place for God when there doesn't seem to be any place left. But it doesn't have to be this way. Christians can find God in the midst of their busy lives, Joanne says, and when they make spending time with Him a priority, life will get better. Misplacing God offers inspiration and practical advice for Christians who want to make a place for God in every moment of their lives.
