Renewal

Thanks to Greg Taylor's review of it, I have found Richard Foster's The Renovare' Spiritual Formation Bible. Foster, Dallas Willard, Walter Brueggemann, and Eugene Peterson along with dozens of others, collaborated to bring this work forward. I have decided to read it through over the next two years. It is HUGE and includes the Apocryphal writings as well as spiritual exercises and amplifying information about each book, it's writer,etc. Most importantly, the bible begins with God and his overall plan for humankind.

I need this in the worst way. My spiritual life is at best stagnant and in need of real life. I feel wimpish and atrophied. I am looking intensely for God, for who he is and who he would have me become. I am ready to search forever more. I am committed to learning the depths of this walk that is called "following Christ." I do not know what to expect. I suspect it will be an adventure.
