The outward Disciplines of simplicity, solitude, submission, and service help prepare us to make the world a better place. The inward Disciplines of meditation, prayer, fasting, and study offer avenues of personal examination and change.


Along the way, Foster shows that it is only by and through these practices that the true path to spiritual growth can be found.ĭividing the Disciplines into three movements of the Spirit, Foster shows how each of these areas contribute to a balanced spiritual life. Hailed by many as the best modern book on Christian spirituality, Celebration of Discipline explores the "classic Disciplines," or central spiritual practices, of the Christian faith. A newly repackaged and updated 40th anniversary edition of the timeless guide that has helped numerous seekers discover a richer spiritual life infused with joy, peace, and a deeper understanding of God, updated with a new introduction by the author and a new section: "Entering the Great Conversation about the Growth of the Soul."
