Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Logos Bookstore Association Award for Christian Living One of the most basic and vital dimensions of the Christian life is the practice of prayer. Frequently our prayers begin with a petition or request, so the content of our prayers is informed by our circumstances. But what if the opposite were true? What if we allowed our prayers to inform our lives? What would our lives be like if prayer altered our living and began to shape the contours and content of our daily experiences? Gordon Smith invites us to learn three movements of prayer—thanksgiving, confession, and discernment—in order to be formed and transformed by prayers that seek God's kingdom "on earth as it is in heaven." Whether you are a beginner in the life of prayer or further along, this small book is a resource for deepening your prayer practice.

Book excerpt: Just as a physically healthy person--at an ideal weight and with good blood pressure and cholesterol numbers--might not actually be fit enough to run a 5k, so churches can appear healthy--with no obvious issues, maintaining a healthy size--and yet not exhibit fitness. A fit church is one that is not satisfied with merely coasting along with no problems. A fit church is actively making disciples, maturing in faith, developing strong leaders, reaching out to the community, and more. Building the Body offers pastors and church leaders twelve characteristics of fit churches and shows them how they can move their church through five levels of fitness, from beginner all the way to elite--just as an athlete, through training and practice, can become the top in his or her class. Includes comparison charts at the end of each chapter so readers can clearly see where their church currently falls and concluding "Complete the Progress Chart" so that they can see what their goals should be for the future.

Book excerpt: Although Jesus of Nazareth was a devout first-century Jew, in the twenty-first century he is often lost in the thickets of Christian theology, reflection on the wisdom of his words, and the busyness of church life. But Jesus is more than words about Jesus. What can we know about Jesus the Jew? What filled his daily life? Why did people come to him in great numbers? At a time in the church''s life when ""spiritual formation"" has become a priority, it is rare to hear someone ask, ""What was Jesus'' spiritual formation like and how did it influence his life?"" What can we learn from Jesus'' life about spiritual formation, prayer, and our involvement in the needs of the world today? Using one hundred daily reflections, Lord, Teach Us to Pray enables readers to experience Jesus'' prayer from the point of view of his Jewish life of prayer. Reflections explore Jesus'' periods of quiet intimacy with his Abba, his commitment to Sabbath worship in synagogues, his participation in the great Jewish feasts at the Jerusalem temple, and the ways in which his life of prayer became the womb of his compassionate engagement with the poor, the ill, sinners, and the ""unclean"" in his society. ""This charming book is a well of spirituality. Keller . . . calls us back to the truth that Jesus had no degree, wrote no book, yet spoke heart to heart about God in a way that the disciples'' hearts ''burned within them.'' These one hundred scintillating meditations offer us Jesus the teacher on prayer: the church''s first and last master of the ways of the Spirit."" --Archpriest John A. McGuckin, Professor of Byzantine Christianity, Columbia University ""David Keller''s distinctive focus on Jesus'' own spiritual formation as a Jew, the initiation he provides into the social and religious milieu in which Jesus proclaimed the onset of God''s reign, and his searching and stimulating recommendations for experiments in reflection and prayer will make this book a godsend for [anyone] who wants in-depth guidance for a one-hundred-day spiritual journey."" --Martin Smith, Episcopal priest, writer and retreat leader ""In creating these practical and profound reflections, Keller provides a model for how historical studies can inform and enrich our spiritual lives."" --Pamela Hedrick, Adjunct Faculty, Online Theology Programs, Saint Joseph''s College ""[Keller] offers fresh, valuable insights into Jesus'' prayer and actions in the context of first-century Jewish understanding. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to steep their minds and hearts in the full range of Jesus'' life of prayer, and his invitation for us to share his direct availability to God''s living Spirit."" --Tilden Edwards, Founder and Senior Fellow, Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation ""Lord, Teach Us to Pray feeds two hungers of our age: the desire for interfaith understanding--especially among Christians and Jews--and passion for authentic spirituality . . . [This] book is delicious, rich and healthy food for our spiritual pilgrimage in our own day."" --The Rev. Jonathan Linman, Assistant to the Bishop for Faith and Leadership Formation, Metropolitan New York Synod, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America ""This charming book is a deep well of spirituality. Fr. Keller, who brings to his New Testament reflections all the honed skills he has learned from years in the academy, here calls back to us the perennial truth that Jesus had no degree, wrote no book, yet spoke heart to heart about God in such a way that the disciples'' hearts ''burned within them.'' These 100 scintillating meditations offer us Jesus the teacher on prayer: the Church''s first, and last, master of all the ways of the Spirit."" --Archpriest John A McGuckin, Professor of Byzantine Christianity, Columbia University ""Jesus'' own Jewish spiritual formation is a subject virtually ignored in both historical studies and spiritual theology. David Keller brings his erudition, teaching, and retreat experience, wisdom, and life of deep
