Introduction to the Spiritual Life: Walking the Path of Prayer with Jesus

A compelling and forcible exploration of the biblical foundations, contemplative practices, and spiritual path of Jesus himself—from the bestselling author of The Case for Jesus.

The path of following Jesus is an ancient and storied spiritual tradition. Yet many believers struggle with the most important part of the Christian life - prayer. Jesus prays throughout the scriptures - in the desert after his baptism, through the night before choosing his Apostles, in Gethsemane. But many of us can only guess at the conversations between Jesus and the Father.

In his most personal book yet, Dr. Brant Pitre draws on the riches of the Bible, the words of Jesus, and the writings of mystics across the centuries to shed light on the mystery and wonder of the spiritual life.

Full of sacred truths, contemplative insights, and practical steps, Introduction to the Spiritual Life is a biblical road map of the spiritual landscape that enables us to follow in the steps of the Word himself - Jesus Christ.
