Critic reviews

"Richard J. Foster has 'found' the spiritual disciplines that the modern world stored away and forgot, and has excitedly called us to celebrate them." (Eugene H. Peterson, author of Leap Over a Wall)

A must read for "every" Church Leader

Pleasantly surprised at how it ministered to me, I continue to recommend and finally I was most impacted by the subjects of meditation, fasting and worship. Narrator was pleasant to listen to.

Well written and insightful

If you were Catholic and you were used to learning about the early century state, but not their spiritual journey, this will enlighten you as to how the Christian walk should truly be and what the traditions are based in

Concise, applicable, and spirit filled.

A great organized summary of spiritual disciplines with purpose and application! The world would be a better place if more people put these into practice.

very instructional and profound.

Diferentes from other books about discipleship, this offers practical ways to become a real disciple. It doesn't represent my Wesleyan view of salvation but it increases the posibility to obtain holiness here on earth.
