Title: Passion for Jesus
First published: 1993
Description: A book about wholeheartedness, it draws autobiographically from Mr Bickle's own longing for God and of course the Bible.  From the intro, "This is not a book filled with formulas such as how to achieve passionate Christianity in ten easy steps.  Instead it has to do with the powerful, concrete connection between knowing the truth about who God is and experiencing affection and passion in our hearts for Him.  It is the revelation of God's passionate love and affection for us that awakens ever-deepening feelings of love and passion for Him."  Personal revelation from God into your own heart of the supreme value of intimacy with God is the beginning of a life-transforming journey the author invites you to, and something we can simply ask our loving Father for.  It is the reason God made us.
