Is your journey to spiritual maturity getting tougher? Youre not alone! The great saints of the past dealt with the same struggles and temptations you face today---uncertainty, pride, doubt, lust, fear, and emptiness. In Seeking the Face of God, Gary Thomas collects the wisdom of Thomas a Kempis, Pascal, Augustine, John of the Cross, and others to show how they found life-changing answers and moved into a deeper relationship with God.

Reviews

Thomas (Sacred Pathways) offers readers a simple method for fostering greater devotion to God. He uses excerpts from Christian spiritual classics, by authors ranging from Augustine, Pascal and Fenelon, as springboards into topics such as the journey of faith, setting spiritual goals, cultivating simplicity and spiritual gluttony. Thomas explains in seven steps how one can train both body and soul to draw closer to God. Seekers should invest time studying the writings of godly men and women of the past, learn to imitate contemporary models of holiness, cultivate godly character virtues, use bodily discomfort as a way to free the soul, rise early to begin each day with God and live life reflectively. Hoping to inspire and guide readers in their journey, Thomas lists his favorite authors' works in an appendix. Like a fine wine, Thomas's practical guide must be savored slowly to appreciate its fullness and flavor.
