Book Review 3 - Celebration of Discipline

"The Spiritual Disciplines are an inward and spiritual reality, and the inner attitude of the heart is far more crucial than the mechanics of coming into the reality of the spiritual life."

Every Christian who is serious about their faith needs to read this book. Foster does an excellent job breaking down spiritual disciplines and explaining the relevance of each practice. Some of my favorite chapters were on fasting, submission, worship, and celebration. I know that if I consistently put these lessons into practice my relationship with the Lord will be taken to new and intimate places. Even while reading through the book I could see how thinking on these things was drawing me closer to God and that is what I desire.

Overall Grade: A+
