Publisher's summary

A call for Christians to move past doctrinal tensions and denominational disagreements and into a deeper, more vibrant, beatitude-like faith rooted in sacred practices and intimate experiences with God.

When a myriad of tense conversations about ideological differences in the Church left him feeling spiritually empty, Niequist determined God must have a different vision for worship and community.

In his search, Aaron discovered that there was historical Christian precedent for enacting faith in a different way, an ancient and now future way of believing. He calls this third way "practice-based faith".

This book is about loving one's faith tradition and, at the same time, following the call to something deeper and richer. By adopting some new spiritual practices, it is possible to learn to swim again with a renewed sense of vigor and divine purpose.

Changing the Conversation !

This book will change the way you talk about how you live! Aaron has written and recorded an amazing snapshot of his journey with moving from a rigid beliefs based faith to an expansive practice based faith. There are not a lot of audible books I would listen to over and over except this one. He speaks like you are sitting down over a cup of cold brew coffee on a hot day and you walk away more refreshed by his words than you do the coffee. Buy this for yourself and send it as a gift to friends and family members you love and want to see grow in their faith in Jesus. Way to go Aaron! You hit a Grand Slam out of Wrigley Field!

Encouraging and helpful!

This book is so needed among evangelicals and I greatly appreciate Aaron's work in bringing God's gift of liturgical history to bear on our lives and churches.

A Good Step

Great resource for beginning to explore and practice other ancient Christian practices not commonly found in American Evangelical Protestantism. If your faith is dry, try studying this remarkable study from the author who once lost faith and found it afresh in a way that changed his life.
