This question commands a concrete and applied response, contends author Thomas Ryan, and the answers he gives us are Straight forward spiritual disciplines for daily life that most people probably have never thought of in that way - taking time for friendship, living with a sabbath rhythm, exercising regularly, and practicing presence to what is happening now. Ryan shares the wisdom and insight he learned from his travels and experience with other world religions and teaches us how to integrate the emotional, physical, and intellectual aspects of our lives into our relationship with God through a reordering of the priorities in daily life. Written for contemporary Christians who have little free time and many demands on their attention, DISCIPLINES FOR CHRISTIAN LIVING is an outstanding "How-To" Guidebook that opens the treasure chest of Christian spirituality and tells us how to use its contents to love God in a more meaningful, practical, and personal way.
