    About this ebook

    “If you want to discover new ways of entering the Bible, and letting it enter you, you will find no better guide than Richard Foster.”
    — Lauren F. Winner, Duke Divinity School, author of Girl Meets God

     “Foster’s work is not for those readers who are seeking quick answers or a behavioral checklist of what the Bible says they should do. Rather, it is a deep reflective guide to spiritual rumination and growth.”
    — Publishers Weekly

    Richard Foster, the beloved, bestselling author of Celebration of Discipline, Streams of Living Water, and Prayer, shows the intimate connection between Scripture and spirituality, revealing the secrets to living the “with-God life.”
