This Renovare resource book helps us to become closer to God in our contemplation and actions without becoming legalistic. Practicing being in the presence of God through prayer, scripture, contemplation and community helps us to be aware of God's love and abundant grace.

I read 6 of 12 chapters in this book in a group study at church. There was no new info for me or enlightening ways of thinking about old things but it provided some good "jumping off" places for group discussion. I didn't know the people in my group and this provided fodder for the conversations. I wouldn't want to use this book in a group of friends I already know well - would be boring, I think.
