While these practices do deepen and enrich our \"vertical\" relationship with God, Kyle David Bennett argues that they were originally designed to positively impact our \"horizontal\" relationships--with neighbors, strangers, enemies, friends, family, animals, and even the earth. Bennett explains that this \"horizontal\" dimension has often been overlooked or forgotten in contemporary discussions of the spiritual disciplines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eoffers\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003ean alternative way of understanding the classic spiritual disciplines that makes them relevant, doable, and meaningful for everyday Christians. Bennett shows how the disciplines are remedial practices that correct the malformed ways we do everyday things, such as think, eat, talk, own, work, and rest. Through personal anecdotes, engagement with Scripture, and vivid cultural references, he invites us to practice the spiritual disciplines wholesale and shows how changing the way we do basic human activities can bring healing, renewal, and transformation to our day-to-day lives and the world around us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kyle David Bennett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1587434032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781587434037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brazos Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/22\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/19\/2017","brand":"Kyle David Bennett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43996347826431,"sku":"9781587434037","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9ab71760-2b08-43ac-9a02-dbc23f0fca25.jpg?v=1683341170","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/practices-of-love-kyle-david-bennett-9781587434037","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
