Product Description

Are you seeking a deeper, more authentic experience of God? Maybe you've attended retreats, read dozens of books on spirituality, or even consulted a spiritual director and found yourself still wanting more.

Did you know that God has given you everything you need to live and flourish in a life with God? You can stop your restless searching and rediscover the gifts God has already given you.

In What We Need Is Here, Roger Owens calls you to return to 7 basics of Christian spirituality:

  1. Reading the Gospels
  2. Praying the Psalms
  3. Making friends with silence
  4. Finding Jesus at church
  5. Meeting Jesus through Holy Communion
  6. Embodying your spirituality
  7. Being with the poor

Writing in a style that is honest, accessible, and at times humorous, Owens weaves his own stories of struggle with insights from the history of Christian spirituality to help you receive and open yourself to these 7 "givens."

This book includes practical exercises and questions for reflection and discussion, making it ideal for individuals and groups.


For those searching for an authentic faith, Roger Owens shows that in Jesus, God has already given us all we need to live and flourish. He calls readers to return to basic Christian practices that build and sustain their relationship with God.

Owens explores 7 fundamentals of Christian spirituality: reading the Gospels, praying the Psalms, befriending silence, finding Jesus in church, meeting Jesus through Holy Communion, embodying our spirituality, and being with the poor. His book is a thoughtful, engaging treatment of practices essential to growth as a disciple of Jesus Christ. Ideal for individual or small-group study.
