Synopsis

Foreword by Bishop Michael B. Curry, Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church and author of Love is the Way: Holding on to Hope in Troubling Times

As followers of Christ, we are called to live in ways that draw us ever closer to our Savior. To follow Jesus is to make extraordinary commitments: To love God with our whole being and to love others as Jesus has loved us.

One path to the Way of Love is through seven key actions: Turn. Learn. Pray. Worship. Bless. Go. Rest. This practical guide explores these words in the context of our life of faith and offers encouragement to begin or deepen spiritual practices to strengthen our journey with Jesus.

Includes reflection questions, journal prompts, and a guide for developing a personal rule of life.

Contributors include Scott Gunn, Brendan O'Sullivan-Hale, Linda Ryan, Hill Liles, Sandra Montes, Richelle Thompson, Lelanda Lee, and Miriam McKenney.
