Christian adulthood is the focus of this book. In it we attempt to
re-envision, to see anew, the patterns of power, confidence, and
loss that shape maturity. This effort is guided by two ideas or,
better, images that have long been central in Christian
spirituality: vocation and virtue. Our goal is to befriend these
images, to rescue them from narrow interpretations that have
weakened each, to recover their power to illumine our adult journey
with God.
""Seasons of Strength" is a probing, thoughtful, and inspiring
exploration of what it means to become an adult Christian. In it,
the Whiteheads have distilled a clear and positive vision of human
development in relation to faith, spirituality, and ministry.
Invaluable as a text in adult education, this book is a steady
resource for classroom use and personal reflection.
--Richard Woods, Loyola University of Chicago
"The book is well-grounded in tradition, but thoroughly
contemporary and original in its conclusions. Highly
recommended."
--Library Journal
