True Spirituality

Does believing in Jesus really make a difference? Francis Schaeffer had been serving as a pastor for over a decade when he began to wonder if Christianity really made a difference in people’s lives. He was tired of not seeing results in his own spiritual life and others’. He found himself talking about Christianity, but not living it. True Spirituality, a twentieth-century spiritual classic, outlines the result of his effort to “start at the beginning” and honestly re-examine his faith. The book is a treasure trove of wisdom for Christians trying to discover what true spirituality looks like in everyday life. Readers will learn: How Christ’s death is central to the Christian faith not just for justification, but also for sanctification Why you should adopt a posture of “active passivity” to experience the Holy Spirit’s transformative work The role of God in healing the whole person—whether it’s psychological problems or relational ones This beloved theological book includes a foreword by Chuck Colson and an introduction by Dr. Jerram Barrs, director of the Schaeffer Institute.
