Back Jacket
"A comprehensive, inviting, and practical guide to spiritual formation"
"The contemporary spiritual formation movement has been with us for forty years, and here we have its rich and mature fruit. The book is grounded in a solid ecumenical evangelicalism that draws deeply from historic and time-tested patterns of formation, yet is well informed by wise, current patterns and insights from the social sciences. Readers will find a comprehensive, inviting, and practical guide to spiritual formation."
--James C. Wilhoit, Wheaton College; author of Spiritual Formation as if the Church Mattered
"Evan Howard has provided a concise 'systematic theology' of Christian spiritual formation in which the personal, corporate, and missional dimensions of the Christian life are closely interwoven. There are few works, if any, that match it in conciseness, practicality, and theological integrity. I highly recommend it."
--Simon Chan, Trinity Theological College, Singapore; author of Spiritual Theology: A Systematic Study of the Christian Life
"An important introductory resource in spiritual formation for persons who are new to the field. Best of all, it is written by a seasoned veteran who practices the disciplines about which he writes."
--Elaine A. Heath, dean, Duke Divinity School; author of The Mystic Way of Evangelism
--Susan S. Phillips, New College Berkeley, Graduate Theological Union; author of The Cultivated Life: From Ceaseless Striving to Receiving Joy
