One of the popular views on spirituality is that there are varied paths to God. This work evaluates this common misunderstanding of spirituality as separated from God's story. It calls readers to an alternative Christian spirituality, one that reveals God's "divine embrace" of us and our passionate response.

  Synopsis Details Reviews  
One of the most popular current views on spirituality is that there are varied paths to God. In this new "Ancient-Future" series book, Bob Webber evaluates this common misunderstanding of spirituality as separated from God's story, extremely self-focused, and shaped by our surrounding culture. This challenging work offers a corrective, calling us to an alternative Christian spirituality, one that reveals two sides-that of God's "divine embrace" of us and our passionate response. "The Divine Embrace" is a fresh, grounded look at true spirituality that will be embraced by pastors, thinking Christians, and anyone looking for an engaging and thorough treatment of this topic.
