Description
John Mark Comer, the New York Times bestselling author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry and Live No Lies, shows readers what is holding them back from authentically following Jesus and reveals the countercultural practices to connect us with a vibrant lifelong faith.
"One of the most important books I have read in a decade... If we would all follow in this way, our lives would change and the world would change." – Jennie Allen, author of Get Out of Your Head and Find Your People
We all have experienced unwanted parts of our spiritual journey: distance from God, gaps in our character, the fear that our lives will be trivial and empty... Jesus is calling us into more. Calling us to be shaped in his likeness. To experience his abundance of life.
But how, practically, can we do that? By becoming his apprentice. By practicing the Way.
Outlining the timeless process of being with Jesus, becoming like him, and living as he did, bestselling author and pastoral voice John Mark Comer delineates God's vision for the journey of our soul.
In this powerful and practical work, he defines his core philosophy of spiritual formation to help us form a "rule of life."
Along the way, readers benefit from his rich cultural insight, deep biblical teaching, and honest and hopeful view of the potential of each human soul.
You feel like there's more to life than this? You're right. Now come discover just how much life awaits you.
