This book mines the rich history of the church for spiritual disciplines that have been largely forgotten in the practice of Christianity. After introductory material that considers the human longing for spirituality and setting a working definition of the term (To be enlivened by God's Spirit is the goal of Christian spirituality.), there is a historical and theological exploration of 16 different ancient practices.

The author, although not correct on everything regarding the Church, gives a very balanced view of traditions in the Church and explains them. I highly recommend this book.

Very much worth a read

I found the narrators voice to be rather theatrical or sing-songy. It was distracting. Additionally, the tone of his voice raised, as if to capture the essence of the female voice, when the author quoted a female. This was profoundly distracting.

Great content

great book, good narrator - but I found it very distracting when he modified his voice for the many quotes used in the book
