Formed for the Glory of God

Learning from the Spiritual Practices of Jonathan Edwards

By: Kyle Strobel

Narrated by: Matthew McAuliffe

Jesus said we should focus our minds and hearts on God above all else. No small task! Is there someone we can turn to for help?

"Wisdom tells us to sit at the feet of our elders rather than the latest ministry fad," notes author Kyle Strobel. And is there a better elder to guide us than Jonathan Edwards?

In Edwards, the 18th-century Puritan pastor and theologian, we find deep thought balanced with deep passion. Through his writings and practices, Edwards provides us with the tools - the "means of grace" - that make us receptive to God's work in our lives as we learn to abide in Christ. Here, we find a well-rounded account of being formed for the glory of God.

This is the book for a journey!

I was introduced to this book earlier this week and haven’t put it down since. What a wonderfully enlightening and convicting book I set as one of my resolutions this year to be a better person at prayer. To truly understand prayer and dive deeply into it. Randomly this book was out in my path for a reason. We need spiritual disciplines in our lives not as an end to themselves but so that we can glory in God. As the quote goes” God is most satisfied with me when I am most satisfied with Him”. A book of discovery. A book of journey.

A book worth diving into

Solid information on a person (Edwards) I knew very little of. Went away from this with spiritual knowledge thank you

Simple and Inspiring

This book should be considered by anyone hoping to grow in their intimacy with God. What’s special about this book is that it adds to the spiritual disciplines conversation from a historical-theological perspective. This book is incredibly accessible, even for those who are not bent toward history or theology. All who read will benefit!

One of the best books I have listened to

Few books really edifying me. As we walk closer to God we find less material that really have meaningful content to help us grow or edifies one. This book is one of the few.

WOW!

What a gem. Off to get a paperback and several highlighters. Strobel, (Kyle) delivers a book of powerful insight. If you’re serious about being a follower of Jesus Christ, this book is an amazing support. There isn’t a pastor who doesn’t need this book in their library. Thanks Kyle. Can’t wait to see what you write next.
