Following Presiding Bishop Michael Curry's call to follow "The Way of Love: Practices for a Jesus-Filled Life" each of these seven little books will provide an entry point to the novice who wishes to learn more about how to begin a practice of turning to Christ, learning about the faith, prayer, worship, the sharing of gifts with others (bless), being a disciple (go), and rest (take time for self-care). Gleaning from the wisdom of CPI authors, each little book will offer excerpts from well-known titles already published in a short, accessible format.
Resources to support The Episcopal Church and beyond—from official worship materials, such as hymnals and prayer books, to professional resources for clergy, lay leaders, and the wider church community.
Once again, it started out slow, but turned out fantastic. I'm sure there's an element of what the reader is bringing to the lecture going on here due to the devotional purpose of this prose. Luckily this book was just what I needed. As one who spent a fair amount of time in prayer and a large portion of my life feeling like I was "doing it wrong", it is refreshing to read of other perspectives on prayer and the contemplative life. These books are super short, and can be read in one sitting. Low investment commitment, potentially big payoff.
