What are five essential values for Christians seeking balance, focus, and meaning in today's fast-paced world? A New York City pastor offers surprising insights. In a time filled with noise and distractions, many feel out of rhythm. For those frustrated with churches that contribute to the chaos, the answer lies in nurturing our spiritual lives for deeper faith. The author presents an interconnected vision of spiritual formation through five key pathways: - The monastic value: Discovering the importance of unplugging and listening to your soul amidst the noise. - The multiracial value: Integrating spiritual understanding with the work of racial justice. - The emotional health value: Recognizing that our inner lives are often disconnected, and true emotional health requires profound love from deeper sources. - The healthy sexuality value: Developing a new perspective on the relationship between our physical and spiritual selves. - The missional value: Cultivating a richer understanding of spirituality that moves beyond consumerism and disengagement. In a fractured world with little common ground, these pathways can transform lives from within and empower individuals to navigate the pressing issues of our time while following Jesus.
