Review

Each Christian generation must discover for itself that experience of God and a living relationship with God are more important in our lives than knowledge about God. Christian spiritual formation is more vital than Christian theological information. This was the great truth discovered by John Wesley in 18th century England, by Jonathan Edwards in the American Great Awakening, by evangelists like Dwight Moody and Phoebe Palmer in the 19th century, and by many recent writers on prayer and on worship. We hunger to know God, not simply to know about God. Our goal is to offer you a basic resource for exploring the history and practice of spiritual formation. This is a basic resource for exploring the history and practice of spiritual formation. The primary emphasis is practical: how we are formed and re-formed as Christians, and how we can be transformed by God's grace.
