The Sacred Year

Mapping the Soulscape of Spiritual Practice

De: Mike Yankoski

Narrado por: Mark Smeby

One searcher's honest and fascinating journey to encounter God, love others, and discover his true self through a year of spiritual practices.

Frustrated and disillusioned with his life as a Christian motivational speaker, Michael Yankoski was determined to stop merely talking about living a life of faith and start experiencing it. The result was a year of focused engagement with spiritual practices - both ancient and modern - that fundamentally reshaped and revived his life.

By contemplating apples for an hour before tasting them (attentiveness), eating on just $2.00 a day (simplicity), or writing letters of thanks (gratitude), Michael discovered a whole new vitality and depth through the intentional life.

Guided by the voice of Father Solomon - a local monk - Yankoski's Sacred Year slowly transforms his life. Both entertaining and profound, his story will resonate with those who wish to deepen their own committed faith as well as those who are searching - perhaps for the first time - for their own authentic encounter with the Divine.

DELIGHTfull

This reflection of Gods revelatory wisdom and grace achieved through sacred disciplines is both inspiring and creates a thirst for more. Thank God for audacious believers that GO the extra mile then share their experienced wonder with us all!

Would not recommend.

I had to force myself to get through this book. The narrator was very good, however. Read "eat Pray love" if you really want to be inspired.
