The Way Up Is Down – Becoming Yourself by Forgetting Yourself, Hardback Book

The Way Up Is Down – Becoming Yourself by Forgetting Yourself Hardback

Hardback

Description

Christianity Today Award of Merit in Spiritual Formation "Now, with God's help, I shall become myself."These words from Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard resonate deeply with Marlena Graves, a Puerto Rican writer, professor, and activist.

In these pages she describes the process of emptying herself that allows her to move upward toward God and become the true self that God calls her to.

Drawing on the rich traditions of Eastern and Western Christian saints, she shares stories and insights that have enlivened her transformation.

For Marlena, formation and justice always intertwine on the path to a balanced life of both action and contemplation. If you long for more of God, this book offers a time-honored path to deeper life.
