Huntersville, NC, December 01, 2025 --(PR.com)-- Claude Ellis Forehand II, MDiv, DMin, who earned a master of divinity (MDiv) in 2002 and a doctor of ministry (DMin) in 2009, both from Hood Theological Seminary Salisbury, North Carolina, has completed his new book “Present in God's Presence: Experiencing God beyond the Restraints of Religion”: a compelling look at how one can experience the Lord throughout their day, thus creating a more intimate relationship with God that is not beholden to religious doctrine.
“‘Present in God’s Presence: Experiencing God beyond the Restraints of Religion’ is a book that intentionally challenges the conventional thinking and traditions of religious practice by offering four spiritual disciplines that instead foster a more intimate relationship with God,” writes Forehand II. “The four disciplines introduced: ‘looking for God in the details of daily activity’, ‘using your imagination’, ‘surrendering to God by resisting the ego’, and ‘practicing prayer as sacred dialogue’; are just some of the natural approaches to experiencing God without the distractions of religion. Hopefully, this book will whet your spiritual appetite and inspire you to seek more.”
