Pursuing A Closer Relationship With God
With Jamila PerryOften, as Christians, we have basic knowledge and understanding about God and how to access Him. In those times of development, we are highly dependent upon Him as we have found little satisfaction or comfort in anything else. As God promotes us in life, increasing our responsibility and broadening our experiences, we may find that what we learned in the beginning about God may not be enough as we face this new challenge: prosperity. Indeed, prosperity proves to be its own test as we seek to maintain our relationship with God and enjoy the comforts that life may provide us. Over the next 10 days, we will examine 10 ways of maintaining a close and intimate relationship with God even as we enjoy certain advantages in life. The more we learn and understand, we can begin to consistently apply these lessons to our everyday lives, shifting our perspective to be more God-centered and God-filtered.
Discover 10 ways of maintaining a stronger relationship with God and how to live by your faith each day.

Meet your Teacher
Jamila has worked as a Licensed Psychological Associate for over 8 years and provides mental health counseling services to children, adolescents, and adults. Counseling comes in the form of individual and group therapy sessions and she helps individuals and families identify emergency resources. Jamila started her private practice to provide quality mental health care to those in need, with the objective to provide more services over time and still retain excellent quality. Jamlia has relied on her understanding of God to live her life. Four years ago, life got extremely rough and what she thought she knew about God was no longer sufficient. She expanded her understanding of God and a deeper appreciation for the true intent of Jesus Christ. The information she shares in her teachings is based on demonstrating how to exercise one's spirituality in practical terms. Her goal is to answer the question of "How do I apply this?"
