Millions have embarked on the path to spiritual growth through Richard Foster's acclaimed Celebration of Discipline. For the many who are inspired to pursue the disciplines in daily life, Foster now offers these devotions for the journey of faith. Filled with key passages from many of his bestselling books, along with thoughtful reflection, Seeking the Kingdom presents Foster's wise counsel and direction concerning the challenges and rewards of the Christian life. Covering topics such as "stillness and worship" "corporate guidance," and "what stops us from praying?," Foster explores the three movements of the spiritual life: the movement inward to personal transformation, the movement upward to intimacy with God, and the movement outward to minister to others.

Learning Humility – A Year of Searching for a Vanishing Virtue

Learning Humility – A Year of Searching for a Vanishing Virtue

Richard J. Foster

INTERVARSITY PRESS
2022
sidottu
In a society where raging narcissism dominates the moral landscape, the virtue of humility is often dismissed as irrelevant. Not only is humility vanishing from contemporary culture, but we are also witnessing how destructive a lack of humility has become among our churches and ministry leaders. And yet, Richard Foster, the founder of Renovaré, insists that humility is central to the journey toward character formation and spiritual transformation. For this reason he decided to spend a year studying the virtue of humility. Using the Lakota calendar as a framework, Foster provides us with a look into the insights he gathered from sources ranging from Native American culture to Julian of Norwich to Scripture to personal friends. By engaging with both the spiritual classics and Foster's own experiences, Learning Humility provides profound insight into what humility can look like in our current cultural climate. Join Richard Foster on the journey toward a life of humility, which he says leads us into "freedom, joy, and holy hilarity."

Caribbean Love Affair Prologue In the early part of the eighteenth century, two ships sailed the waters of the Caribbean. The first, an English merchant ship, left Kingston Jamaica, fully laden and bound for her home port in England. On this voyage she carried two passengers. The first, Eleanor Simpson Forbes, seventeen years old, blonde haired, medium height, slender and beautiful, was an only child. Her father was Sir Benjamin Simpson Forbes, aide to Sir Francis Black, governor of Jamaica. Her mother was Lady Caroline Simpson Forbes, a stunningly beautiful English rose. The second passenger, Margaret Stewart, born of good Scottish stock, joined the Forbes' as governess to Eleanor. She is travelling with her charge in her new position as companion.The second ship, a French first order frigate, now in the hands of a murderous horde of escaped prisoners, led by a cold blooded half caste called Paul Duval, is engaged in acts of piracy. On board the pirate vessel is a young English sailor, Peter Bennet, an unwilling member of the crew, released from prison when Duval led the daring escape and subsequent capture of the frigate. Just turned eighteen, tall, strong, with dark brown hair, and a ruddy complexion, Bennet has no choice but to accept the situation. Will fate bring these two vessels together? If it does, what does the future hold for all on board each vessel?

Chinese Sensei Chongkun, owner of a Dojo in Hong Kong. His parting words to his pupil Thomas Logan-Savage. 'If ever a situation arises where you can do nothing, do nothing. Relax your body and allow your strength to build. Keep your mind alert for that split second when opportunity presents itself. You will know when it is time to act. That is the time to use the skills I have taught you. You are no longer just a man. Now you are a weapon.' 'You've been killing people again, Tom, haven't you' So says Charlotte, Thomas's sister and only surviving family. When terrorists invade her home at gunpoint, they have no idea what they are about to unleash. Thomas Logan-Savage is an ex-MI5 officer. Highly skilled with firearms and knives, he is an expert in many forms of martial art and a ruthless killer if his life - or that of any of the people he cares about - is threatened. Thomas Logan-Savage is an enigma; he is THE LONER.

Liv med Gud : att läsa Bibeln till andlig förvandling

Liv med Gud : att läsa Bibeln till andlig förvandling

Richard J. Foster

Livets Ords Förlag

pokkari
Att läsa Bibeln till andlig förvandling Vi söker ofta efter specifika texter när vi läser Bibeln. Vi kommer gång på gång till Bibeln med ett behov – Gud måste tala. Tänk om vi i stället skulle låta Ordet förändra oss på djupet och låta Gud använda den rika källa som bibeltexten är för att ge oss tilltal. Liv med Gud är en oumbärlig guide när det handlar om att närma sig Bibeln med sikte på andlig och personlig förvandling. Här visar Richard Foster att det är stor skillnad mellan att läsa Bibeln för att lära sig om biblisk historia eller bara få andliga instruktioner och att läsa Bibeln till andlig förvandling. Bibeln utmanar dig helt enkelt att leva ett liv med Gud. Richard Foster är en teolog och författare vars författarskap har nått en bred kristen publik. Med ursprung inom kväkarrörelsen har han innehaft en professur vid Friends University och verkat som pastor inom Evangelical Friends. Hans mest lästa bok Celebration of Discipline finns tidigare utgiven på svenska under titeln Vägar till glädje. Foster är även grundare av Renovaré, en rörelse för andlig förnyelse. Han bor i Denver, Colorado i USA.

Prayer - 10th Anniversary Edition: Finding the Heart's True Home

Richard J. Foster

Harperone Large Print
2002

Best-selling author Richard J. Foster offers a warm, compelling, and sensitive primer on prayer, helping us to understand, experience, and practice it in its many forms-from the simple prayer of beginning again to unceasing prayer. He clarifies the prayer process, answers common misconceptions, and shows the way into prayers of contemplation, healing, blessing, forgiveness, and rest. Coming to prayer is like coming home, Foster says. "Nothing feels more right, more like what we are created to be and to do. Yet at the same time we are confronted with great mysteries. Who hasn't struggled with the puzzle of unanswered prayer? Who hasn't wondered how a finite person can commune with the infinite Creator of the universe? Who hasn't questioned whether prayer isn't merely psychological manipulation after all? We do our best, of course, to answer these knotty questions but when all is said and done, there is a sense in which these mysteries remain unanswered and unanswerable . . . At such times we must learn to become comfortable with the mystery." Foster shows how prayer can move us inward into personal transformation, upward toward intimacy with God, and outward to minister to others. He leads us beyond questions to a deeper understanding and practice of prayer, bringing us closer to God, to ourselves, and to our community.
