With clarity, wisdom, and wit, Brian Taylor offers a fresh look at contemplative prayer as the pathway to genuine healing and spiritual transformation.Review Quotes
Brian Taylor is doing us a great service in providing such a clearly written, profoundly ancient, and yet contemporary basis for this larger knowing [of God in Christ] that we now call contemplation. If you are a beginner-and aren't we all-you will find a solid foundation here. If you are wanting to go further, there is enough good material here to build a second or third floor of wisdom. This is not just spirituality, which is 'in' now, but even, dare we say it, the wisdom of the Holy Spirit.
. . . among all the detritus, flotsam, and muck, Becoming Christ could serve as a strategically tossed life preserver.
It would be unfair to tell a prospective reader of this book that it is 'easy.' As with most worthwhile things in this world, the read is easy&mdsh;mastering the methods and goals this book explains is hard. If you are interested in doing some serious work in the three major areas of 'Contemplation, Illumination and Union with God, ' then this is a book with which you should spend some time.
This is a very nice, practical treatment of the journey into the contemplative for ordinary people. The contemplative journey is demystified without watering it down.
