Millions have embarked on the path to spiritual growth through Richard Foster's acclaimed Celebration of Discipline. For the many who are inspired to pursue the disciplines in daily life, Foster now offers these devotions for the journey of faith. Filled with key passages from many of his bestselling books, along with thoughtful reflection, Seeking the Kingdom presents Foster's wise counsel and direction concerning the challenges and rewards of the Christian life. Covering topics such as "stillness and worship" "corporate guidance," and "what stops us from praying?," Foster explores the three movements of the spiritual life: the movement inward to personal transformation, the movement upward to intimacy with God, and the movement outward to minister to others.

Reader from NJ,
By A Customer
This review is from: Seeking the Kingdom: Devotions for the Daily Journey of Faith (Paperback)
I bought this book not being familiar with the author's prior works and was pleased to discover that it is a compendium of other books. It is organized simply and concisely in a way that enhances one's spiritual experience reading through it with additional exercises which are optional and bible readings. This book taught me a great deal about living in the Presence from an author who obviously "walks the walk". I recommend this book to Quakers and all who are seeking the Presence in their lives.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Seeking the Kingdom: Devotions for the Daily Journey of Faith (Paperback)
Short chapters start with a passage from the Bible and end with questions and task items. It is excellent for a daily or a weekly devotional reading. As a well respected and trusted writer, Foster has produced a short booklet to aid in spiritual disciplines. I've gone through it several times already, and I can't never get enough of it. Highly recommended as a supplement to your daily spiritual regiment!
