As the world grows increasingly complex, human beings need more,
not less, good counsel for Christian living. This book reaches into
the treasury of Anglican spirituality and draws out pearls of
wisdom for today's needs. The Anglican tradition has shown an
abiding concern for a holy living that leads to a holy dying.
Spiritual Counsel in the Anglican Tradition offers earnest,
practical devotion to inspire and to instruct the Christian pilgrim
in the path of discipleship. Here readers will find not a general
collection of spiritual writings but direct words of spiritual
counsel on such crucial subjects as discipleship, vocation,
scripture, sacraments, vice and virtue, money, patience,
forgiveness, perseverance, marriage and family, friendship, and the
natural world. Readers will also encounter many passages selected
for both authoritative content and surpassing beauty. Represented
in these pages are fifty Anglican authors, including John Donne,
Austin Farrer, C.S. Lewis, Samuel Johnson, William Law, Hannah
More, J.B. Phillips, Michael Ramsey, Frederick W. Robertson,
Dorothy L. Sayers, Geoffrey A. Studdert Kennedy, William Temple,
Evelyn Underhill, and Olive Wyon. This is a book that takes
seriously the Anglican emphasis on a form of religion that quickens
the mind, forms the conscience, guides the will, and lifts the
spirit.
