Publisher's Synopsis
For the countless numbers of people who have come to faith through the Alpha course, here is a beginner's guide to spiritual formation and exploration of the next stages of the Christian journey. This attractively illustrated book draws on the riches of the biblical and Christian traditions to offer a complete personal guide to spiritual growth. Following the seasons of the Christian year, it asks 'the big questions' that arise on any journey of faith: Advent - Beginnings: why are we here? Christmas - how is God involved in the world? Lent - why do some people suffer while others prosper? Good Friday - why are we afraid of death? Easter - is there more to life? And Pentecost - where is the power for living? With biblical reflections and practical ideas for spiritual nourishment throughout, this is an ideal guide to living the Christian life.
