Longing for God, by Richard Foster and Gayle Beebe
 

Spiritual formation is the process through which one’s inner self is opened to the work of the Holy Spirit, who forms us into the image of the Son. In their new book Richard Foster and Gayle Beebe, both experienced leaders in spiritual formation, introduce you to people from the past who have known God deeply.

Each person helps you to grasp one of the seven primary paths to intimacy with God that have been developed throughout Christian history. Chapters are divided into sections, each segment surrounding a key figure and concluding with a reflection and prayer.

This rich resource can guide you into the same deep intimacy with God, opening you to the Spirit’s work of transformation and helping you begin to fill your longing for God.

“This is a feast for the mind and the soul . . . the best and richest of Christian thinking and soul-making made accessible to everybody.”
— John Ortberg, author and pastor, Menlo Park Presbyterian Church

“The authors have opened doors into ‘the unsearchable riches of Christ.’”
— Dallas Willard, author of The Divine Conspiracy

“If you are looking for an authentic spiritual formation manual, you must read this book that will take you to the ‘never-ending presence of God’ experience!”
— Joshua Choonmin Kang, author of Deep-Rooted in Christ, and pastor of Oriental Mission Church, Los Angeles

“This marvelous book . . . takes us deeply and slowly into the old trusts of our fathers and mothers in faith. The book will be a valuable detailed reminder that the journey is not an easy one, and that we are not the first ones who have walked that way.”
— Walter Brueggemann, author of The Prophetic Imagination
