Casting a Vision: The Past and Future of Spiritual Formation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781951268008)

In 1978, Richard Foster's classic Celebration of Discipline sparked the Christian spiritual formation movement. Forty years later, at a church leadership conference, Foster delivered his final public talk which addressed new challenges Christians face on the road of becoming more like Jesus. That talk is now available in this brief booklet.

All proceeds from this booklet support Renovar , a nonprofit that helps people in becoming more like Jesus.

Richard J. Foster is founder, past president, and current team member of Renovar . He studied at George Fox College and received a Doctor of Pastoral Theology (D.Th.P.) from Fuller Theological Seminary. He has served as a pastor, taught at universities and seminaries, and spoken worldwide on spiritual formation. Author of over 60 articles and six books, including Celebration of Discipline, hailed by many as the best modern book on Christian spirituality, Richard continues to write on the spiritual life.
