Book Overview

Spiritual disciplines are to the believer what medical school is to the doctor. "A man came up to me at a conference where I was speaking and said, 'Pat, do me a favor. Tell me how to be good. I already know how bad I am.'"

That statement captures the intent of this book and the purpose of the spiritual disciplines. Spiritual strength, like surgical skill or athletic excellence, requires training and practice. To become the kind of man who walks with God and wields Christ's influence in your world, you'll want to begin a consistent regimen of spiritual exercises.

In A Man's Guide to the Spiritual Disciplines, Patrick Morley highlights twelve habits that will strengthen your walk with Christ, including:

Experiencing God in creation Letting the Bible change your life Learning the power of prayer Grasping God's greatness through worship Gaining strength through Sabbath Thriving because of fellowship Succeeding through wise counsel


By presenting each discipline with a concise overview, several examples, and application ideas to get you going, this powerful guidebook will help you develop the maturity every man of God was designed to reflect.

For normal guys - If you've ever been overwhelmed by the spiritual disciplines, or just don't know w

One of the hardest things a man faces when he walks in the church for the first time, or the first time in a long time, is the way everyone walks around using vocabulary he doesn't get, using words that mean different things outside the church than inside the church, and acting like everyone knows what they're talking about. No topic is perhaps more discussed but less understood by the average guy - not Joe SuperChristian, but a regular guy - than the area of spiritual disciplines. This book is quite simply the best introduction to the spiritual disciplines I've read. My initial reaction was that it was a little broad and not too deep. But then I realized that's the genius of it! It's not so deep that you can never finish it. I've talked to plenty of guys that have started books on spiritual disciplines and never finished them. You will finish this book. It will give you a great "first step" towards deepening your relationship with God. In addition, it's written specifically to men. It's not all touchy and feely, nor is it overly academic. It talks about areas of a man's life that he might not have ever thought of having to do with spiritual disciplines. After you've read this and the regular practice of paying attention to God becomes a part of your life, you might very well want to read Bridges or Whitney. So who should read this book? Anyone who is: - mystified by all the "spiritual disciplines" vocabulary - tried and failed to to "do" spiritual disciplines - frustrated that they don't "get" spiritual disciplines - a disciplemaker interested in helping other guys begin to build a life that is centered on God and what His will is - a regular guy who wants to give more of his life over to God's direction
