Streams of Living Water: Celebrating the Great Traditions of Christian Faith

Streams of Living Water: Celebrating the Great Traditions of Christian Faith

by RichardFoster (Author)

Synopsis

Many Christians have a hunger for God that their own tradition seems unable to fully satisfy. While keeping the Bible as his touchstone, the author,Richard Foster, has discovered how other historical strands can offer additional food for the spiritual journey. He celebrates the riches of the Christian experience today. While Evangelicals live a "word centred" life, the Charismatics have discovered a "spirit empowered" life. But there is much to learn also from the holiness traditions who practice a "virtuous life" as well as the social justice movement. Contemplative and other perspectives are also explored, drawing on historic lives and biblical teaching to offer a more enriching relationship with God and his world.
