A practical, engaging, and devotional study of the various pathways to a deeper relationship with Christ In these postmodern times, there is a growing desire for an authentic spirituality that will touch our lives in meaningful and practical ways. The biblical vision of the spiritual life as a relationship with the living and personal Creator can satisfy this deep desire, but most accounts of this vision are fragmentary or one-sided. Conformed to His Image offers a comprehensive, balanced, and applicable approach to what it really means to know Christ. Rather than presenting one or two approaches, author Ken Boa provides an in-depth discussion of twelve pathways in the spiritual life and shows how each of these pathways contribute to the dynamic process of spiritual growth. With its systematic, synthetic, and broad-based approach to the spiritual life, Conformed to His Image draws readers into a deeper appreciation and desire to participate in the various facets of Christian spirituality. Among the twelve facets of spiritual formation addressed are: * Relational spirituality: loving God completely, self correctly, and others compassionately * Exchanged Life spirituality: grasping our true identity in Christ * Process spirituality: being vs. doing; process vs. product * Warfare spirituality: the world, the flesh, and the devil * Corporate spirituality: encouragement, accountability, and worshipBoa, Kenneth D. is the author of 'Conformed to His Image', published 2001 under ISBN 9780310244363 and ISBN 0310244366.
