Devotional Classics: Selected Readings for Individuals and Groups

Edited by: Richard J. Foster & James Bryan Smith
Publisher: HarperSanFrancisco

Description: The fifty-two selections in Devotional Classics have been organized to introduce readers through the course of one year to the great devotional writers. In addition to the author's original text, each reading features an introduction, a linked biblical passage, discussion questions, individual and group exercises, and a meditation by Richard J. Foster. Featured authors include: Augustine of Hippo, Bernard of Clairvaux, Francis of Assisi, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Sienna, Thomas à Kempis, Catherine of Genoa, Martin Luther, and many more. The readings are organized according to the Six Traditions of Christian life and faith emphasized through RENOVARE: Contemplative, Holiness, Charismatic, Social Justice, Evangelical, and Incarnational.


RCC Recommendation: 52 carefully chosen selections from devotional classics.  From C.S. Lewis to John Wesley to St. Augustine these selections cover the fundamental spiritual traditions which have shaped the lives of so many Christians down the ages.  Each selection comes with solid biblical reference, reflection questions and exercises.  This is for the group desiring to go deep.   John Hirsekorn, Director of Small Group Ministry, RCC
