Gracia sobre gracia: Espiritualidad para hoy

Descripción

From the Publisher Spiritual life isn’t about striving for perfection—it's about receiving grace, resting in Christ, and savoring the presence of God in everyday moments. For every heart longing for deeper faith, here is practical wisdom on receptive spirituality. "Our whole life as the children of God is a life of reception. We have been justified by the grace of God the Father, so we now live by faith in His grace. Because we believe in Him we now receive every spiritual gift from Him. We receive grace upon grace from the fullness of the incarnate Christ. God is the giver of every good and perfect thing, the ever-flowing fountain of lift and light, and we receive everything from His hand." —from the Introduction Transform your understanding of Christian spirituality from performance-based to "receptive spirituality." See how God does not ask you to continually strive for achievements and prove yourself to Him. Rather, the true life of a Christian is defined by the continual reception of God's gifts to you—living in a state of grace with open arms for whatever He gives. With arguments grounded in Martin Luther's works, the Bible, and Kleinig's own personal experience, you can see how Luther's framework of oratio, meditatio, and tentatio guides the Christian life. Open your heart up to the gifts of God and see how through prayer, personal reflection, increasing your dependence on God, and abandoning the quest for self-fulfillment, you can truly feel fulfilled.
