During our chaotic times, discover five forgotten values that can spark internal growth and help us reconcile our Christian faith with the complexities of race, sexuality, and social justice.
Most believers live in the state of "being a Christian" without ever being deeply formed by Christ. Our pace is too frenetic to be in union with God, and we don't know how to quiet our hearts and minds to be present. Our emotions are unhealthy and compartmentalized. We feel unable to love well or live differently from the rest of the world--to live as people of the good news.
New York pastor Rich Villodas says we must restore balance, focus, and meaning for our souls. The Deeply Formed Life lays out a fresh vision for spiritual breakthrough following five key values:
- Monastic Value: unplug from this noisy world to care for your soul - Emotional Health Value: why deep love can't come from shallow wells - Healthy Sexuality Value: how our bodies connect with our spirituality - Multiracial Value: a spiritual, internal approach to pursuing racial justice - Missional Value: how to be the hands and feet of Jesus in a consumerist world
The Deeply Formed Life is a roadmap to live in the richly rooted place we all yearn for: a place of communion with God, a place where we find our purpose.
