– 15th Annual Outreach Magazine Resource of the Year – Inspirational
– Evangelical Christian Publishers Association Top Shelf Book Cover Award 2017When we're young, it's easy to believe in the supernatural, the mysterious, the enchanted. But as we grow older, we learn to be more ‘rational’ and more confident that reality is merely what we can see. Even as Christians who believe in the resurrection, we live as if miracles and magic have been drained from the world.As Mike Cosper wrestled with his own disillusionment, he found writers, thinkers, and artists like Hannah Arendt, Charles Taylor, James K. A. Smith, and David Foster Wallace whose words and ideas reassured him that he was not alone. And he discovered ancient and modern disciplines that shape a Christian way of life and awaken the possibility of living again in an enchanted world. Exquisitely written with thoughtful practices woven throughout, this book will feed your soul and help you recapture the wonder of your Christian walk.
