We were never meant to settle for shallow and fleeting connections that lack intimacy. But it has become increasingly difficult to build the life-giving relationships that God made us to need and enjoy.

There is a glorious answer to the "intimacy deficit" many of us face today. An open invitation to meaningful connection:

- with our Creator God
- with ourselves
- with others
- with God's creation.

With biblical insight, practical advice and the hard-won wisdom of experience, Ed Shaw shows us how Christ is at work to exchange our intimacy deficit for life in all its fullness.
