Create Your Own Rhythm for Meaningful Time with God

Do you long for a deeper connection with God but find yourself overwhelmed by the demands of a busy life? In the chaos and noise of everyday life, finding time to truly connect with God can feel impossible.

But what if you could cultivate true intimacy with God right in the middle of your ordinary, everyday moments?

With God Everyday offers a customizable framework for a daily spiritual practice that intentionally invites God into your everyday life. Through an adaptable, step-by-step process, this practice helps you cultivate the time and space to grow your relationship with God. Each step helps you find freedom to engage with God, yourself, and others in a practical and thoughtful way.

This book guides you through a framework of questions to ask in your time with God, helping you to

  • create your own process for a daily quiet time with God,
  • experience God's presence more deeply as you invite him into your daily life, and
  • cultivate true spiritual transformation through a continually growing relationship with God.

Discover how to create space for a meaningful quiet time with God, even on the most chaotic days. This book will allow you to meet God right in the middle of your everyday and foster an intimate connection with God that is rich, deep, and transformational.

"The simple yet potent questions within With God Every Day gently invite us toward the center of our souls, the place where deeper connection with God becomes possible. It is clear that Bobbie Schaeperkoetter trusts in an approachable and loving God, one who offers us true abundance and freedom in his presence. She has crafted a simple, flexible, and deeply personal process to help you engage with God day by day through Scripture and prayer. This is an invitation to notice and respond to God's loving movements in your life. Pick up this book and begin practicing a more attentive, responsive life with God."Gem and Alan Fadling, founders of Unhurried Living and authors of What Does Your Soul Love?
"With a blend of personal experience, biblical study, and practical wisdom, Bobbie Schaeperkoetter has written a guide for all who want to build their relationship with God. More so, she has addressed the most important matter: how do I build a real relationship with God? Her approach—get real with God, on a daily basis—builds practices that, over time, culminate in a vibrant faith and a growing connection with him. The style of the book is conversational, drawing the reader into a coffee conversation, answering the proverbial big questions in everyone's faith. I'll be using it at my church!"James R. Estep Jr., director of the doctor of educational ministry studies at Dallas Theological Seminary and pastor of Richland Hills Christian Church
"With God Every Day is a beautiful invitation to know God more intimately in the midst of ordinary life. With warmth and wisdom, Bobbie Schaeperkoetter offers readers a practical framework for creating space to meet with God each day and to grow in a relationship with him that is rich, personal, and transformative. I've had the privilege of ministering alongside Bobbie and have seen her deep love for God and for women. I wholeheartedly recommend this book."Jennifer Dukes Lee, author of How to Love Your Morning and Growing Slow
"If you're looking for accessible, concise practices that are street-level but still enriched with clarifications and cautions, this is it! Pick it up today for some delightful times with God."Jan Johnson, author of Meeting God in Scripture and chair of Dallas Willard Ministries
"Bobbie Schaeperkoetter has written more than just another book—she has given us a daily rhythm of life with God that is practical, flexible, and deeply transformative. Whether you're new to faith or have been following Jesus for years, With God Every Day will help you build the kind of life where intimacy with God becomes natural, not forced."Caleb Kaltenbach, research pastor at Shepherd Church and author of Messy Grace
"Hope-filled and practical, With God Every Day is for every reader longing for a deeper connection with God. This is loaded with tangible practices to help you enjoy life with God and experience his presence daily! Bravo, Bobbie! I highly recommend it!"Becky Harling, speaker, coach, and author of How to Listen So People Will Talk
"A personable book because Bobbie Schaeperkoetter is in relationship with a personal God, With God Every Day invites you into a lifelong and daily journey with the Savior. Schaeperkoetter does so by offering practical advice for the basics, because Christians often assume these basics rather than contemplate them intentionally. I very much look forward to sharing this book; it is ideal for people who long for more but aren't sure where to begin. Schaeperkoetter, with years of experience, is the ideally inviting guide."Amy Peeler, associate rector at St. Mark's Episcopal Church and the Kenneth T. Wessner Chair of Biblical Studies at Wheaton College
