Have you ever wondered, “What’s God’s plan for me? Does He even have one?” The answer is yes! God’s plan for every believer is a lifelong transformation into the likeness of His Son.
So how does that transformation actually happen? The new book A Heart Aflame for God: A Reformed Approach to Spiritual Formation explains that many popular ideas about spiritual growth—such as legalism, formalism, and mysticism—do not align with what the Bible teaches about growing in faith. This book helpfully points readers to a biblical understanding of how God works to nurture our spiritual maturity and the essential role believers play in that process.
Drawing from the wisdom and spiritual disciplines of the Puritans and the Reformers, A Heart Aflame for God explains how practices including prayer, Scripture reading, fellowship, self-examination, meditation, and engagement with God’s natural world are routine activities believers are to embrace. Through their example, you’ll see that these disciplines aren’t burdensome obligations but the life-giving means God uses to shape believers’ hearts and facilitate spiritual growth.
A Heart Aflame for God is a refreshing reminder that faith isn’t only meant to be believed—it’s meant to be lived, loved, and intentionally pursued.
