The pace of the modern world with its constant demands and digital connection can make it tough to form a rich spirituality. Though many of us long for a nourishing connection with God, we often struggle to form habits that cultivate and sustain it.
In Faith Habits and How to Form Them, retreat guide and spiritual director Emma Timms shares 21 spiritual practices that will both feed your soul and fit with the life you are actually living. Drawing from the Bible, the saints and mystics of old, as well as contemporary psychology, this book will help you uncover God's already-active presence inside you and help you form rhythms and practices to connect more deeply.
Discover how to:
- Understand the importance of habits in forming a life-giving spirituality
- Apply spiritual practices that have been used throughout the ages
- Make a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and seasonal plan for your spiritual life
- Adjust your spiritual practices to the season of life you're in
Whether you're a stay-at-home parent, an overworked business owner, a local church leader, or a student, this book will help you nurture an essential and foundational relationship with God and give you the tools to outwork your faith in your unique context.
