Over the centuries devout believers have sought for the best ways to bring their lives and thoughts closer to God. This wisdom is available for believers today and is effectively set forth in this four-part series. Richard Foster points the way to a new level of spiritual maturity through a rediscovery of the time-honored disciplines of Christian devotion. Use this series in small or large groups to spark a whole new interest in Bible study, prayer, and meditation. Dr. Foster lectures throughout the world on the "spiritual life." He has written "Freedom of Simplicity" and the best-selling "Celebration of Discipline," on which this series is based.
