The Sacred Shadow: Grasp God's Kingdom Today by Courtney Cohen, is an eye-opening, thought-provoking, inspiring and exciting read. The secrets of God's kingdom are before us, hidden in plain sight, for those willing to discover them. Author Courtney Cohen explains the truth about God's Kingdom by breaking down often overlooked verses and phrases from the Bible, and showing readers that God's Kingdom is here, where we are, right now.

This has tremendous impact on how we live our lives minute by minute, day by day.

The Sacred Shadow shows readers that just as a shadow represents something of greater substance, the light casting a representative image, God uses things of this life that are shadows of His Kingdom. As an example, the love we experience and share are representations of the love of God. Yet this love is here and now, not some distant idea, but to be fully realized when we see our God face to face. The Kingdom of God is real, not a lofty dream, and it is His immediate presence with us, right now, that allows us to take hold of His Kingdom today.

I very highly recommend The Sacred Shadow: Grasp God's Kingdom Today by Courtney Cohen. As I continue to study this book deeper, I expect to grow even to God, my relationship with Him being strengthened as I live a richer, deeper, more intentional life, one that is making a difference today.

I love this quote from Courtney Cohen in The Sacred Shadow: "May we sense the sacredness of this temporary home, the goodness present in the here and now. May we live with urgency, intent upon the eternal, seeing with seeing eyes the only everlasting things we daily sense, souls

bearing the image of our eternal God, living here in the sacred shadow."

Please get this book!

It took a little longer to read this book than I anticipated. The reason for that is because I had to devour each and every word. This book really helped me see God on a more personal level and I honestly feel that it has strengthened my relationship with HIm. God is real and heaven and earth are right here. It's possible to feel the presence of God right here on earth. One just needs to get in that quiet space with Him, He is there.

I truly love this book and I highly recommend it. It's one of those books that just really brings out the presence of God and I'm grateful that I had a chance to read it.

I received an advanced copy of The Sacred Shadow. Courtney Cohen conveys what is possibly the most important message for believers in a world that is increasing in chaos without any regard for Truth. I believe that anyone whose heart is for Jesus can sense the shift in the spiritual realm of this world. A sifting is occurring right before our eyes, and The Sacred Shadow is Courtney's pursuit to awaken us to the "realer real" just beyond the veil.

As people who are called be in the world but not of it, Courtney's message is not only timely, but it is also a compass for how to be citizens of Heaven while living in this present world. How do we press in to the Spirit and the Kingdom of God here and now?

The Sacred Shadow invites us to see that the physical world isn't separate from eternity; it is a shadow of eternal reality - the Kingdom of God, which existed before all of this and will be the only thing that persists when this world passes away. We are citizens of Heaven first and foremost, and The Sacred Shadow helps direct our gaze upon the One True King, Jesus Christ, in this physical world. It is a must read for all believers.

Beautiful imagery and an authentic voice in our day. Easy to read with a voice I can understand and it not go over my head.

This book is a word from God in due season! Courtney gives fresh manna from Heaven for the body of Christ in such a time as this. I encourage readers to dive into this book without preconceived world views and mindsets, challenging them to dare to ponder the great mysteries God speaks through Courtney's book. I have full confidence that this book will fan in to the kingdom flame rising up in this world. Step past the fog of this world and into the real REAL revealed through the Spirit within the pages of The Sacred Shadow.
