M. Robert Mulholland Jr. defines spiritual formation as "the
process of being formed in the image of Christ for the sake of
others." Compact and solid, this definition encompasses the
dynamics of a vital Christian life and counters our culture's
tendency to make spirituality a trivial matter or reduce it to a
private affair between "me and Jesus." In Invitation to a Journey,
Mulholland helps Christians new and old understand that we become
like Christ gradually, not instantly. Not every personality is
suited to an early morning quiet time, so Mulholland frees
different personality types to express their piety differently. He
reviews the classical spiritual disciplines and demonstrates the
importance of undertaking our spiritual journey with (and for the
sake of) others. This road map for spiritual formation is
profoundly biblical and down to earth. In the finest tradition of
spiritual literature, it is a vital help to Christians at any stage
of their journey. This edition is revised and expanded by Ruth
Haley Barton with a new foreword, spiritual practices and study
guide, to provide spiritual direction for individuals and groups
seeking spiritual companionship for one another on the journey of
transformation.
