wahinered said "walking the walk" - this book will help you better understand the ebbs and flows of our spiritual life. If you're struggling in your relationship with the Living God - not matter how long you've been "walking the walk" - this book will help you better understand the ebbs and flows of our spiritual life and encourage you to continue in your pursuit of Him! A "must read" for all I mentor.. Very worthwhile exploration of the spiritual life This is an excellent book. If you are seeking an authentic relationship with God, one in which the whole range of emotions we have as human beings fits into, you'll find these words real and true to your experience.Howard Macy presents the Christian life at its best: God centered, but humanly real. By loo. Masterfully written and inspiring Dr. Macy not only shows his high level of scholarship but his sensitivity to the realities we all face in our walk with God. His approach gives the songs of the Psalmists a contemporary voice that resonates with our Twenty First Century spiritual journey in a way that I found refreshing and meaningful.
