095 - Awakening

How many questions do you have about fasting and drawing closer to God?  If you're like me probably several.  Stovall Weems does an excellent job of tackling how to keep your spiritual life fresh and powerful.  His book breaks down some basic principles that will help you stay aligned to God's will.  His book also coveys all the important information in a 21 day format so that after getting through the first part of the book the reader can practice what they learned for 21 days.  It's a great read and I'd highly recommend it for anyone seeking a bump in their spiritual life.

081 - In Constant Prayer

By now we've reviewed almost the whole Ancient Practices Series.  Here's one of the last remaining ones we haven't gone over yet.  In Constant Prayer by Robert Benson was an excellent read.  He challenges his readers to... get ready for this... pray.  It seems like something so simple, but it's such a beautiful concept.  Something that we all know we should be doing, but at the same time so often forget to do.  How can we make prayer an integrated part of our lives where it becomes engrained in us?  What can we do to "pray without ceasing"?  Benson tackles those questions and more.

078 - The Sacred Journey

I'm slowly working my way through the Ancient Practices Series from Thomas Nelson and have landed on "The Sacred Journey" this time.  This has been an excellent series thus far, and again I haven't been let down.  Foster writes like a poet with incredible word choices and an excellent topic.  He delves deep into the historical pilgrimage.  An all around excellent book I would highly recommend to anyone seeking to know more about the historical practices that Christians have been using to draw closer to God many years ago.
