Description:
An invitation to experience a loving, personal relationship with God through seven spiritual practices.
The Way of Love set forth by the Episcopal Church's Presiding Bishop Michael Bruce Curry is the journey of a lifetime. It's a way of knowing God, receiving and sharing Jesus' love, and being a blessing to the world. Mariann Edgar Budde shares how readers can come to know--to receive--Jesus more deeply in practicing the Way of Love. Through the seven practices that have been put before us: to turn, to learn, to pray and to worship, to bless, to go, and to rest, she will share biblical stories, wisdom from the Christian tradition, and her own personal stories of spiritual growth.

Review Quotes:
"If you are a long-time church-goer, eager for your faith to really come
alive, a spiritual seeker who has never really felt connected to a faith
community, or if you once were part of a church but have dropped out,
here is a book that will help you find what matters most in the
spiritual life. It's beautiful, personal, simple, practical, and
understandable, and on top of that, it's honest, deep, and true. I've
been looking for a book like this for years. I will recommend it every
chance I get." -Brian D. McLaren, author of The Great Spiritual Migration
