Beginning with a look at modern approaches to spirituality, including the New Age and the many new spiritualities it has spawned.

A Sacred Rendezvous
Noise and trouble characterized the first century world Jesus incarnated into. Accordingly, He had a plan to combat the sirens of chaos blaring around Him: solitude. As the twenty-first century tumbles more and more out of control, noise and trouble continue to define the times we live in. We require spiritual space where we can unplug from the currents of daily commotion. More than ever, we're in need of sanctuary and silence. In A Sacred Rendezvous, Ron Mahler, with fresh and creative insight, takes you on a journey through the Gospels to revisit the pathways the Saviour used to escape to remote places in order to meet up with the Father. You will be challenged to go beyond merely observing that intimacy to realizing and craving it, personally and continually. From heaven's perspective, we'll likely wonder how we could've settled for anything less on earth than the most sacred of all rendezvous!
Spiritual Direction and the Care of Souls
In recent years, many Christian clergy, laity and mental health professionals have rediscovered the ancient practices of spiritual direction. Seen as a refreshing alternative to the techniques and limitations of modern psychology, such practices offer new insights for pastoral care. But many remain unclear on what spiritual direction is and whether its methods are applicable to their own clients and parishioners. Spiritual direction is a practice of Christian soul care that is found most notably in the Catholic, Orthodox and Episcopal traditions but is also present in Wesleyan/Holiness, Pentecostal/charismatic, social justice and Reformed communities. Predating modern counseling and psychoth...
How Then Shall We Guide?
There has been a marked increase of interest in the art of spiritual direction in recent decades. Yet in many circles, especially in ecumenical and interfaith contexts, it is unclear what grounds the practice of this ancient art. As a tradition's practice of spiritual direction expresses its particular theology, which, in turn, is shaped by its unique history, this work explains that ecumenical spiritual direction must make and retain the tri-perspective of history, theology, and method that faithfully reflects each tradition's distinctives as requisite for true ecumenical enrichment. The importance of this trinocular vision is brought into sharp focus through a comparative study of Ignatius of Loyola and John Calvin, where points of continuity and discontinuity between the Ignatian and Reformed traditions underscore the importance of this work's thesis.
Till Christ Is Formed in Us
Spiritual formation is the process whereby Christ is formed in us through the power of the Holy Spirit, thus fulfilling God’s purpose for each of us. Till Christ Is Formed in Us explores this process by defining it, and explaining how it is influenced by one’s context. The book identifies the various aspects of spiritual formation and shows how it is practised. Based on his experience as a Bible teacher and spiritual director, Dr Solomon provides a comprehensive, accessible and helpful practical guide for those interested to know more about, and learn how to experience, spiritual formation.

Re-Envisioning Transformation
In today's church, use of the term transformation has become commonplace. Various perspectives are offered on what a Christian view of transformation is--and on how it may be achieved. These often-conflicting views suggest an ecclesial landscape characterized by pluralism, division, fragmentation, confusion, relativism, individualism, pragmatism, and subjectivism. Despite the current interest in transformational theology, the absence of a common, coherent, and integrated vision (and the lack of transformation) is often accepted and affirmed. Re-Envisioning Transformation looks at the possibility of moving toward a vision of transformational theology that is cohesive, unified, broad, effectual, and distinctly Christian. In this book, the contributions of two radically different"theologians of the Christian life" are examined. This provides the basis from which to develop a comprehensive and integrated framework of transformational theology--pointing God's people toward the need to express and live out a distinctly Christian vision.
Finding Our Voice
No one preaches in a cultural vacuum. The message of what God has done in Christ is good news to all, but to have the greatest impact on its hearers--or even to be understood at all--it must be culturally contextualized. Finding Our Voice speaks clearly to an issue that has largely been ignored: preaching to Asian North American (ANA) contexts. In addition to reworking hermeneutics, theology, and homiletics for these overlooked contexts, Kim and Wong include examples of culturally-specific sermons and instructive questions for contextualizing one's own sermons. Finding Our Voice is essential reading for all who preach and teach in ANA contexts. But by examining this kind of contextualization in action, all who preach in their own unique contexts will benefit from this approach.
