I'm going to be reading through this book with a few friends from church in the months ahead.
Soul Keeping
by John Ortberg
Publisher's Description...
The health of your soul isn’t just a matter of saved or unsaved. It’s
the hinge on which the rest of your life hangs. It’s the difference
between deep, satisfied spirituality and a restless, dispassionate
faith.
In an age of materialism and consumerism that tries to buy
its way to happiness, many souls are starved and unhealthy, unsatisfied
by false promises of status and wealth. We’ve neglected this eternal
part of ourselves, focusing instead on the temporal concerns of the
world―and not without consequence.
Bestselling author John
Ortberg presents another classic that will help you discover your
soul―the most important connection to God there is―and find your way out
of the spiritual shallow-lands to true divine depth. With
characteristic insight and an accessible story-filled approach, Ortberg
brings practicality and relevance to one of Christianity’s most
mysterious and neglected topics.
