Spiritual Formation guidebook

Marjorie Thompson offers us an excellent grace-based spiritual formation guidebook in this volume, especially designed for use by groups, though adaptable for individual use as well. After her superb book "Soul Feast", a survey of the spiritual life in practice, this Companion in Christ series volume presents practical spirituality in the Christian stream in such richness and clarity. Highly recommended! For another volume on spiritual formation, for busy parents raising children, look into The Busy Family's Guide to Spirituality: Practical Lessons for Modern Living From the Monastic Tradition

Participants in this small-group study will explore the central stories of John, focusing on people who discovered God's grace through their encounters with Jesus. This is more than a survey of the biblical stories of Andrew, Simon, Philip, and Nathaniel; Nicodemus; the Samaritan woman; the lame man; the woman caught in adultery; the blind man; Mary and Martha; and Simon Peter. The Way of Grace is a transforming interaction with the events and the characters, a chance to identify with what God provided for these people--a provision they could never achieve for themselves. Groups new to Companions in Christ or to spiritual formation will find The Way of Grace to be a good introductory course. A leader's guide is also available.
