A menudo pensamos en la fe cristiana como una obligaci n o como un conjunto de creencias que debemos seguir. Si seguimos esta idea podemos perder de vista lo m s importante: la invitaci n a experimentar una relaci n amorosa y personal con Dios. Esta es una relaci n en la que podemos confiar, en la que podemos encontrar protecci n y tierra segura sobre la cual pararnos. Mariann Edgar Budde comparte sus pensamientos sobre c mo el lector puede llegar a conocer - a recibir - a Jes s m s profundamente, practicando el Camino del Amor. Ella comparte historias b blicas, la sabidur a de la tradici n cristiana y sus propias historias personales de crecimiento espiritual a trav s de las siete pr cticas que nos han sido dadas con antelaci n: cambiar, aprender, orar, adorar, bendecir, ir y descansar.
So often we think of the Christian faith as an obligation or as a set of beliefs that we must hold. With this outlook, we can lose sight of what is most important: the invitation to experience a loving, personal relationship with God. It's a relationship we can trust, where we can find refuge and solid ground upon which to stand.
The Way of Love set forth by the Episcopal Church's Presiding Bishop Michael Bruce Curry is the journey of a lifetime. It's a way of knowing God, receiving and sharing Jesus' love, and being a blessing to the world. Mariann Edgar Budde shares her thoughts on how the reader can come to know--to receive--Jesus more deeply in practicing the Way of Love. Through the seven practices that have been put before us: to turn, to learn, to pray and to worship, to bless, to go, and to rest, she will share biblical stories, wisdom from the Christian tradition, and her own personal stories of spiritual growth.
