Logos Bookstores' Best Book in Spirituality/Devotional Christianity
Today Book of the Year Honorable Mention, Best Book of the Year
from Byron Borger, Hearts and Minds Bookstore As Christians, we're
squeamish about desire. Isn't wanting sinful and selfish? Aren't we
supposed to find and follow God's will rather than insisting upon
our own? The story of each person is a story of want-desires unmet,
hopes dashed, passions pursued and ambitions fulfilled. Our wants
cannot be ignored. But when desire is informed by Scripture and
re-formed by our spiritual practices, it can root us more deeply in
the fundamental belief that God is good and generous and can invite
us into active kingdom participation. Jen Pollock Michel guides us
on a journey of understanding who we are when we want, and
reintroduces us to a God who gives us the desires of our hearts.
That same good God calls us into a new reality in which we seek
first his kingdom and righteousness, and we discover our disordered
desires burned away while our truest longings are happily fulfilled
and purified. The disciples asked Jesus to "Teach us to pray." This
book asks, "Teach us to want."
