Sinopsis

Foreword by Phyllis Tickle A fresh, readable introduction to Christian spirituality,áGod Seekersábrings to life thirty-three spiritual masters from throughout Christian history. Through capsule biographies, selected quotations, and questions for reflection, Richard Schmidt presents and explores diverse ways of relating to God. Each chapter personalizes a major stream or movement of Christian spirituality by focusing on a particular key figure. &ldquo,WhileáGod Seekersámay be read with delight or for information . . . it is impossible to engage it for long without being seized as well by the grandeur of the panorama it lays out before us. Here, in living people, in living saints, is the history of the church, the body of Christ as we and our kind have shaped it and are shaping it.&rdquo,-- Phyllis Tickle (from the foreword)
