Celebration of Discipline

Description

Arguably the most established contemporary spiritual classic by our most profound living religious writer. This timeless classic has helped well over a million people discover a richer spiritual life infused with joy, peace and a deeper understanding of God. The book explores the 'classic disciplines' of Christian faith: the inward disciplines of meditation, prayer, fasting, and study; the outward disciplines of simplicity, solitude, submission and service and the corporate disciplines of confession, worship, guidance and celebration.

Richard Foster is a best-selling author, the founder of RENOVARAe - a movement committed to spiritual renewal - and Professor of Spiritual Formation at Azusa Pacific University, California.

'Like a child exploring the attic of an old house on a rainy day, discovering a trunk full of treasure and then calling all his brothers and sisters to share the find, Richard Foster has 'found' the spiritual disciplines that the modern world stored away and forgot ... the instruments of joy, the way into mature Christian spirituality and abundant life.' -- Eugene Peterson 'This is a book I'd love to have written ... exciting, stimulating and joyful.' -- Joyce Huggett 'The best modern book on Christian spirituality.' -- Ronald Sider
