Come Closer

A Call to Life, Love, and Breakfast on the Beach




Come Closer draws Christian women and spiritual seekers who feel exhausted, broken-hearted, and like they're living beyond their emotional means (wondering Is this all there is?), delivering a welcoming, hope-filled message of and spiritual refreshment and renewal.

For every reader who’s bought into the idea of working harder, doing more, smiling bigger, or running faster to get more out of life–and then faced disappointment, fatigue, or the unnerving unexpected, award-winning author Jane Rubietta offers relief and irresistible promise.

Her fresh approach to fifteen of Jesus’s familiar but too-often forgotten invitations in the New Testament remind readers of His promise that: Life can be better, more sure and satisfying, more beautiful, and truly tasty–not just someday, in heaven, but here and now.
With humor, unforgettable experiences, and gracious encouragement, Jane plumbs Scripture to bring alive these invitations of help, hope, and the refuge of Home. She takes readers on an exploration of the fifteen times in Scripture that Jesus invites followers to come–for relief, light, help, hope, and even breakfast. Jane then offers engaging ideas and tangible things readers can do to draw near to these promises.

Come Closer is an invitation to a richer, more spiritual life–an invitation that will open readers’ eyes to the love and feast God intends every soul to experience.

Praise for Come Closer

–Shannon Ethridge, M.A., best-selling author of the Every Woman’s Battle series and the new Loving Jesus without Limits series including Completely His

“Jane Rubietta has issued an invitation to come from wherever you are right now to an intimacy with Christ that is deeper, higher, wider, and more personal than you’ve ever experienced before. With gentle, conversational tones, she weaves stories from her own life with the stories of Jesus, and skillfully woos the reader to develop the daily habit of responding to His call. If you are longing for a transformational encounter with Him, read this book!”

–Carol Kent, speaker and author of A New Kind of Normal

“Jane Rubietta beckons us to accept Jesus’ invitation to join him in intimacy. My response to the entreaty is immediate and core: I’m on my way!”

–Elisa Morgan, CEO of MOPS International, publisher of Fulfill
